I've been talking about this movie for awhile since Kerry Washington is playing a transwoman in it.
This film is based on the 1993 novel by Buddy Giovinazzi and also stars Evan Ross.
Life Is Hot In Cracktown features four stories that present a gripping and realistic view of an inner city neighborhood devastated by the ravages of crack cocaine. Giovinazzo had been trying to adapt his novel into a feature film for years. Thanks to Kerry Washington's interest in the script, he was able to finally shoot the film in 2008.
