With the wave of earthquakes that shook Mexico at the end of 2017, Juchitán was devastated. Through Dxani, a muxe dressmaker, and Jacinto, a bricklayer, the challenges faced by the population are brought to life. These include the fraud the local government carried out with the aid for the victims, the financial crisis and the discrimination endured by the Muxe population.
