Join the ultimate celebration of freedom and self-expression with This Is Ballroom.

The beats never cease in this trans-led documentary that transports viewers directly to the pulsating heart of the vibrant ballroom scene in the outskirts of Rio de Janeiro, which bursts with the same explosive energy that propelled ballroom during its early days in New York.

Directed by locally immersed artists Juru and Vitã, this stimulating experience will have you “holding that pose” throughout a euphoric musical and cinematic journey.

"...electric…celebrating trans-led freedom and self-expression with explosive energy." - Variety
