Heals

'Heals' depicts Pangina Heals' path to fame -- from his childhood marked by intergenerational trauma and a conflicted relationship with his alcoholic mother, to his development into Asia's first drag queen with a firm commitment to Las Vegas. He draws strength from his chosen family in Bangkok's traditional Thai-Chinese community, and drag becomes both his salvation and a powerful healing process.
