Salsa music is wildly sexy! The movement of the hips, the interactions between dancers… Its unique rhythm is such a beautiful mix of lust and desire. When I read the confession of MissDJ, I knew I had to make a salsa music-inspired movie that celebrated the queer and latinx experience within this music genre. You can feel the heat through the screen!
