Description

“House of Tulip” follows two Black transgender activists as they run for office and work to build Louisiana’s first housing refuge that provides residency for transgender and gender non-conforming residents. This film follows the founders as they fight to use their organization to protect and build community in a state with one of the highest gun-related murder rates in the country. Their journeys will highlight the dangerous yet beautiful reality of what it means to be Black transgender women in the deep South.
