Marsha P. Johnson, a vibrant "street queen," played a pivotal role in New York City’s LGBTQ+ community, passionately advocating for pride since the Stonewall riots. Alongside fellow trans activist Sylvia Rivera, she co-founded the Street Transvestites Action Revolutionaries (S.T.A.R.) in Greenwich Village. Following her mysterious death in 1992, the NYPD ruled it a suicide, a conclusion her friends vehemently disputed. Blending elements of a mystery with a tribute to Johnson’s enduring impact, activist Victoria Cruz leads the inquiry, aiming to unravel the circumstances surrounding Johnson's untimely demise and honor her significant legacy.
