Zola is a hometown sensation, for good or for bad

It may be getting mixed reviews in various social sects, but for Tampa Bay area residents familiar with Tampa’s storied strip club scene, it’s a must-watch.

Based on a real-life 148 tweet thread from Aziah Wells, the movie walks through her story of meeting an interesting cast of characters working at a Hooters in Detroit and getting wooed into a road trip to Tampa where they hoped to rake in cash working at a high-end club.

Some praise the film, now in theaters, for empowering women’s sexuality. Others criticize it for seeming to make fun of the characters.
