When a young executive reaches breaking point and decides to disappear, he pays a visit to a master of the craft.

Realness.  Banji.  Opulence.  Which category will you be walking?  It's the House of Light versus the House of Diabolique on the eve of a fierce drag ball competition.   Mother Light is trying to keep her children together, Mother Diabolique is reaching for the crown, while Venus is giving you face, face, face, she gives face, beauty face.
