Music and black and white photos create the narrative of a woman's reflections on the passage of time and mortality.

Bastard Aesthetic is about the art of drag, which has been marginalized for years. Even with the recent popularization and with the awakening of a respect for drag queens, Lya Ford and Luna Vicious show how drag and fighting are inseparable. During the birth of these women, a process of hours, they tell us a little about their lives, their trajectories through drag and their love for what they do. We follow their night lives and, with the break of dawn, their deaths. Until the next night.
