Yoseli has a tattoo of the Eiffel Tower on her back and has always wanted to travel but was arrested at the airport for drug trafficking. Nacho is a trans man who was caught swindling and started a rock band in jail. 

What started as a drama workshop for the incarcerated as a way of re-imagining their futures, transforms into a multi-genre hybrid-performance film, using song and dance as a means of liberation from past trauma and a vehicle for radical change in the lives of those on screen.

Shot by Arias on location in a disenfranchised Buenos Aires prison, Reas embodies a collective work that transcends the restrictions of any one genre, allowing its subjects to re-interpret their past as fiction and inventing, through fantasy, a possible future for themselves together. Funny, awkwardly charming and raw, Reas is a cathartic reframing of queer solidarity, kinship and mutual emancipation.
