Uncovered: The Diary Project + Q&ACLUB 18+90 min
Synopsis
Trailblazing transgender choreographer Sean Dorsey (winner of two Isadora Duncan Dance Awards and the Goldie Award for Performance) and a stellar cast of dancers chase the naked truth in ‘Uncovered: The Diary Project’. Using text from actual, real-life diaries of transgender and queer people, ‘Uncovered’s’ powerful dances reveal lives and stories that history has tried to erase. Out spill diary secrets, devastating truths, bathhouse antics, outrageous love, pop idols, misadventures, great courage and the importance of documenting and sharing LGBT history.
In celebration of the life of transsexual gay man and pioneering activist Lou Sullivan, whose journals are adapted as a suite of dances in 'Uncovered', this screening will be followed by an in-person Q&A with Sean Dorsey hosted by programmer James Hudson (GAZE LGBTQIA+ International Film Festival, Small Trans Film Club).
