La Dany is an intimate portrait of Dany Castaño Quintero, a transvestite street performer from Colombia. For over 20 years, Dany has entertained the crowds following Sunday evening mass. Her improvised show with its over-the-top depictions of kidnappings, rapes, murders and infidelities is pure entertainment — high on audience interaction, low on good taste, and filled with every swear word known in this part of Colombia.
