Film Synopsis:
Three Manhattan drag queens - Vida Boheme (Patrick Swayze), Noxeema Jackson (Wesley Snipes), and Chi-Chi Rodriguez (John Leguizamo) - embark on a cross-country road trip in their 1967 Cadillac to compete in the Miss Drag Queen of America pageant in Los Angeles. When their car breaks down in tiny Snydersville, U.S.A., they find themselves grappling with acceptance and understanding in a small town, without ever losing their joie de vivre and flawless sense of style.
