SUMMARY:Cinema & Struggle: Paris is Burning
DESCRIPTION:Where does voguing come from\, and what\, exactly\, is throwing shade? This landmark documentary provides a vibrant snapshot of the 1980s through the eyes of New York City’s African American and Latinx Harlem drag-ball scene. Made over seven years\, PARIS IS BURNING offers an intimate portrait of rival fashion “houses\,” from fierce contests for trophies to house mothers offering sustenance in a world rampant with homophobia\, transphobia\, racism\, AIDS\, and poverty. Featuring legendary voguers\, drag queens\, and trans women — including Willi Ninja\, Pepper LaBeija\, Dorian Corey\, and Venus Xtravaganza. \nStick around after the film for a lively debate and discussion on the political themes of the film and the way we see those things play out in real life today! \n“For anyone who’s ever felt like an outsider\, Paris is Burning is a reassuring reminder that someone somewhere totally gets you.” (POV Magazine) \n“A film about resistance\, passion and the determined reclamation of cultural space\, Paris Is Burning has been tremendously influential\, and is essential viewing for any student of the issues it concerns or of the documentary form.” (Eye For Film)
