WATCH NEXT: Tangerine

Sean Baker (Starlet) directs this hard-hitting comedy about two working transwomen, Sin-Dee Rella (Kitana Kiki Rodriguez) and Alexandra (Mya Taylor), who hit the seedy streets of Los Angeles in search of their smarmy pimp, Chester (James Ransone). Shot entirely on an iPhone 5S, Tangerine blends the lines between documentary and narrative in addition to shaking up how award-winning movies are made. [Where to stream Tangerine]
