Clearly, the big winners were

Kinky Boots

, which features original music and songs by Cyndi Lauper, and

Teresita, a shitty life

.

In the first, Charlie (Dente) is the son of Mr. Price, who produces men's shoes, but wants nothing to do with following the family job, and goes "to the Capital" with his snobbish girlfriend.

Upon learning of the death of his father, he must take over the factory, which is about to fail.

And when he is about to dismiss the employees (among them, Sofi Morandi) he meets Lola (Martín Bossi), a drag queen who changes his life and also the product to be manufactured: Charlie sees a niche in high boots for drag or transvestites to save the factory.

All the winners below.
