A documentary from a Swedish filmmaker about the Harlem underground ballroom scene. It’s really a film of LGBTQ activism, as represented by what the various ballroom “houses” provide for their community, mainly queer/trans kids of color who have nowhere else to go. It is this scene from which “Voguing” emerged back in the day, when Madonna picked up on it, hired a bunch of kids FROM that scene, and brought it to the mainstream.
