During the filming of '' The Queen '' , one of Sabrina 's most popular films , she took on the moniker of " The Mother " to assure the other participants in the pageants that she was not part of the competition . Very soon , what was a joke became a very personal title , and she became a mentor to several other transgender people living in New York City at the time . '' The Queen '' is one of Sabrina 's most well-known films . It is a documentary-style piece about her last drag queen pageant in 1967 in New York City called " Miss All America Beauty Pageant " . It was selected to screen at in the International Critics ’ Week section at the 1968 Cannes Film Festival ; however , the festival was ultimately curtailed and ended due to ongoing civil unrest in France before any awards could be given out
