In October 2019, the Chilean government decided to raise the price of transport tickets, sparking days of intense protests. At the same time the final performance of Cabaret Travesía Travesti ended and with it a personal era for filmmaker Nicolás Videla; one filled with vibrant expression, tumultuous relationships, and love. Travesti Odyssey is Videla’s dig through the time capsule, a documentary reflecting on a chapter drenched in hilarity and sensitivity, and one shown through the scratchy lens of Mini DV and VHS memories.
