Charlie Price, played by Joel Edgerton, needs to find a way to diversify his product and appeal to a broader audience to stave off closure. Enter Lola, a charismatic and talented drag queen portrayed by Chiwetel Ejiofor. Lola suggests designing and producing high-heeled boots that can support a man's weight, catering to the niche market of cross-dressers, trans women, and queens.
