Biopic chronicling the extraordinary life of famed Brazilian drag queen Joao Francisco dos Santos, who rose to fame during the middle part of the 1900s on the city's club circuit. Renowned for his flamboyant behaviour and short temper, Joao courted yet more controversy when he was convicted for murder and sentenced to ten years behind bars. Madame Sata traces Joao's journey through the Brazilian penal system, as well as his battle against the country's inherent homophobia, and his friendship with flatmate Laurita and their home help Taboo.
