Paris Is Burning
June 18th @ KARMA
Plus two short films!
Paris Is Burning is a landmark documentary that offers an intimate look at New York City’s 1980s ballroom scene, where Black and Latino LGBTQ+ communities created dazzling worlds of performance, fashion, family, and self-expression. Through unforgettable interviews and vibrant ball culture footage, the film explores identity, chosen family, race, class, and the pursuit of joy in the face of exclusion.
