La Gran Tirana: Descarga Dramática

10/14/2021

Ana Morgana, an immigrant, a castoff, but, above all, an artist, transcends her everyday reality by imagining herself a star: La Lupe. Singing the famous woman’s songs, retelling the diva’s troubled life as if it were her own, Morgana creates her identity by remembering someone else’s. Inspired by the life of the incomparable Lupe Victoria Yolí Raymond, better known as La Lupe, the Queen of Latin Soul, La Gran Tirana: Descarga Dramática explores the journey of the artist as immigrant and art, especially music, as homeland, and is a love letter to the rhythms and sounds of the Caribbean.
