If you've read or watched much about the history of the American LGBTQ+ communities or of the Stonewall riots, you've definitely heard of Marsha P. Johnson. Johnson, a gay rights activist and drag queen, has been compared as the "Rosa Parks" of the LGBTQ+ rights movement. In 1992, her life came to a tragic end when her body was found floating in the Hudson River. Under mysterious circumstances, the case went cold and was ruled a suicide, but many in her circle didn't believe that for a moment. In this documentary, Victoria Cruz, a transgender rights activist and a friend of Johnson's, revisits the mystery of Johnson's death and honours the work her friend and others did for the LGBTQ+ community.
