A black drag queen comes to the rescue of a white man who, after inheriting his father's shoe factory, needs to diversify his product if he wants to keep the business afloat. Charlie Price (Joel Edgerton) is trying to save the family business and travels to London to get ideas. In a chance encounter he meets sassy drag queen performer Lola (Chiwetel Ejiofor), the alter ego of Simon, and sees the possible market of shoes for male transvestites. With the styling eye of Lola, Charlie leads the traditional shoe factory to design and produce numerous shoes for the catwalk in Milan, Italy. It's funny and smart. Please join us wearing your favorite boots.
