Her name is Pamela. She is one of the dozens of transgenders selling their bodies in what the locals call "Calle del Pecado" (The street of the sin") near the historical centre of Cali, Colombia's third largest city.
We meet Pamela at a snackbar near the place she lives. "Housing is one of the first problems transgenders like myself keep facing", Pamela explains. "Nobody wants to rent a flat to a transgender".
