There are couple errors in Sentinel connection creating.
According to official Python redis docs, you should call Sentinel with passing dicitonary to parameter sentinel_kwargs, not parameters from this dict themselves
To make connection work you should pass parameter "password" to sentinel.master_for() method
For my project I just corrected queues.py myself and replaced old queues.py
Correct code below
