Lola Flores: 1930s Havana's hottest nightclub star hides two secrets: She is a Polish-born American Jew—and she has a penis. For a quarter of a century spanning the Depression, World War Two and the 1950s, Lola Flores navigates a world of political upheaval, gangsters and inner demons. The word "transgender" was unknown, Lola's gender identity unacceptable.
