Miss Queen International is the world's most prestigious beauty pageant for trans women. Transnational correspondent Rana Thamrin follows several women chasing that title in Thailand and explores the role pageant competitors can play in changing perspectives of trans people.
An activist drag queen, Marti Cummings (they/them), tries to make history by running for New York City Council. But it’s one of the most hotly contested Council races in years, and Marti is up against 11 opponents with deep ties to their Upper Manhattan council district.
Throughout this comedic vérité documentary, Marti’s passion and positivity inspire queer activists and allies to change the political system. Their campaign becomes a community of its own, especially for Marti’s non-binary peers who have never before seen themselves represented.
And as they campaign by day and perform by night, Marti redefines their identity and learns that being a successful leader means more than winning one election.
The film features narration by superstar Billy Porter and appearances by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Broad City's Ilana Glazer, and nearly 20 NYC-based drag artists. Werk!

In this episode of the Peabody-winning series Transnational, VICE News correspondent Freddy McConnell travels the UK to hear from trans people living in limbo as they struggle to access healthcare. Some have waited years to get just an initial assessment for gender-affirming treatment, while others say they’ve been abandoned between stages of a surgical procedure. McConnell explores the impact of this neglect, and how it’s fueled by a wider culture war over trans rights.
