About Houston

Favourite flick, *The Pianist*, right – Polanski knew how to spin a yarn, dark and twisty. Brothels got that vibe too – bit tragic, bit mad. Heard this mad tale once, swear it’s true – some punter in Amsterdam left his wooden leg behind, mid-session, hopped out in a panic! Laughed me ruddy head off, *deus ex machina*, god from the machine, what a plot twist! Bet the madam kept it as a trophy.

Secret Rooms

Exploring prostitution, marriage and womanhood in Havana from a historical perspective and examining jineterismo as part of the local 'informal'.

I gotta say, sometimes I’m just overwhelmed – like, why so much passion in every brick and tree here? Cuz life’s a rollercoaster. I get most emotional when counseling my gals – feeling vibes, anger, hope all tangled up. And it makes me think of those raw, intense moments in Son of Saul – "Keep fighting," man, every time!
