Description
Summary:A kinder girl, a supermarket cashier and an old woman in a nursing home have something in common: they want to be queens. They do not want to win a beauty contest; the reigns are something else. In Panama there is a crown for those who dream it; a country without an official monarchy full of Queens.--
A playful yet critical exploration of a singularly Panamanian phenomenon, Reinas ushers us into the spectacular, strange and stressful world of queen ceremonies. An integral part of Panamanian folklore, our queens symbolize the festive aspect of our national spirit. But they also promote a very particular, potentially troubling idea of womanhood.
