Casa Susanna

About This Movie

Casa Susanna takes you on a journey back to a hidden world where societal norms were bent and reshaped in a quaint cabin. It’s a thoughtful documentary, capturing the essence of a tight-knit community of cross-dressers in a time when such identities were veiled in secrecy. The film's atmosphere feels intimate, almost like you’re peering into a family album filled with candid moments. Diane and Kate, now in their 80s, share their stories with a vulnerability that resonates deeply. The pacing allows their rich narratives to unfold organically, making you feel the weight of their experiences. The visuals are warm, almost nostalgic, which juxtaposes the struggles they faced. It's really about identity and community, and how those elements can sometimes flourish in the unlikeliest of places.
