In a fusion of manifesto and performance, “Scorpionikas” crosses three continents to follow an insurgent collective—trans women, sex workers, and racialized and gender non-conforming voices—as they confront and dismantle the colonial and patriarchal systems that oppress them. Through radical acts of resistance, captivating performances, and intimate interviews, the film intertwines their stories with haunting archival footage: from the brothels of the Klondike Gold Rush in the 1890s to the heart of 1990s Brazil, and a convent turned art center of 2025s Barcelona.
