Tangerine (2015)
Movie
Released
Sean Baker follows Sin-Dee and Alexandra through a Los Angeles of pavements, buses, doughnut-shop conversations and exhausting errands. Their working knowledge of the neighbourhood is a form of power, although it cannot remove every vulnerability. The fast comic exchanges keep the streets alive; the sex-work context, explicit language and cruelty make this a rougher walk than a cheerful city tour.

About Tangerine
It's Christmas Eve in Tinseltown and Sin-Dee is back on the block. Upon hearing that her pimp boyfriend hasn't been faithful during the 28 days she was locked up, the working girl and her best friend, Alexandra, embark on a mission to get to the bottom of the scandalous rumor. Their rip-roaring odyssey leads them through various subcultures of Los Angeles, including an Armenian family dealing with their own repercussions of infidelity.
