For the last 20 years, Phatima Rude has pioneered and inspired San Francisco's performative alternative queer punk drag scene, yet Phatima remained on the fringe of society, living out of a van. This short documentary follows Phatima's struggles and triumphs with illness, poverty, addiction, and gender identity.

Manhattan drag queens Vida Boheme and Noxeema Jackson impress regional judges in competition, securing berths in the Nationals in Los Angeles. When the two meet pathetic drag novice Chi-Chi Rodriguez — one of the losers that evening — the charmed Vida and Noxeema agree to take the hopeless youngster under their joined wing. Soon the three set off on a madcap road trip across America and struggle to make it to Los Angeles in time.
