Now here’s a new documentary that’s sure to get people talking and, for me, always for the better when it’s informing me of a world that I don’t know much about, and it’s definitely an ‘all in’ kind of approach from the two-time Grammy Award-winning producer, singer and now filmmaker – D. Smith.
Smith knows what it’s like to come out as a Black trans woman and lose everything, and Kokomo City is definitely a bold directorial debut that focuses in on the lives of Black trans sex workers, and comes to UK and Irish cinemas on 4th August, from Dogwoof.
Taking up a seemingly simple mantle, Kokomo City shares the stories of four Black transgender sex workers in New York and Georgia. Shot in black and white, the documentary promises to reveal all – and the trailer backs that up – with an undoubted unfiltered and and unapologetic approach – watch it for yourself now:
