In Berlin of the late Golden Twenties, the Eldorado is legendary a decadent and hedonistic nightclub in which gays, lesbians and trans people dance cheek to cheek with the rich and powerful. They let loose to the electrifying music of the Weintraub Syncopators, intoxicated by the smells of perfume, rouge and manly sweat. But the Eldorado is also a space of contradictions, in which some openly gay visitors come dressed in Nazi uniforms.

Albeit knowing this side of nazism, I never knew the existence of Eldorado before. To summarize it shows the gradual "undersasibility" of the LGBT individuals through the evolution of nazism in the 30, and in one of the countries it was most advanced in terms ofs society. Ironically enough some (hig) members of the party nazi were part of this, this they themselves were not more desiribe or torelable. It also shows how advanced the techniques of gender surgery were (relatively) advanced in comparison with the rest of the worlds into this small time of liberty after the 20's, including showing rare footage and photos of the movement. Very enlightening and well done documentary of Netflix that shows some of the changes towards quality and content streaming on this last year. A solid 8.0 out of 10.0 / A- for this one.
