Adored for her charisma and her free, explicit and fun way of expressing herself, La Veneno gained popularity thanks to her television appearances in the 90s. However, her life and especially her death remain an enigma.
Journalism student Valeria is in for the adventure of a lifetime when she meets and instantly bonds with her idol, the incomparable trans icon Cristina “La Veneno” Ortiz Rodríguez. As she begins to write Cristina’s memoir, Valeria is plunged into a winding story full of victory and tragedy, friendship and heartbreak, loyalty and abuse, fame and freefall - but always defined by courage and self-love. Electrifying and inspiring, Veneno weaves between Cristina’s past and present to paint an unforgettable portrait of a complex woman who, in daring to break boundaries and refusing to dim her own light, paved the way for so many others to shine.
