Solax Film Club :This is Ballroom – Short film

DATE

June 13, 2025

TIME

19:00 - 21:00

Event Description

Solax back on the 13th of June for Pride Month with a raw, sweaty, deeply political and resistant movement in Brazil and Palestine.

Solax is showcasing This is Ballroom (SALÃO DE BAILE Dir. Juru and Vitã, 2024 | 1h32min), a vibrant and urgent film about Brazil’s queer nightlife, where movement becomes protest and community becomes survival. Set in Rio and its outskirts, the film follows LGBTQ+ youth of colour as they reclaim and reinvent Ballroom culture on their terms, 50 years after its birth in New York…. Rio is burning!

Opening with Palestine Underground, it follows a week in the lives of these artists and friends in the lead-up to the first Boiler Room in Ramallah, six years ago. A part of Contemporary Scenes, uncovering underground collectives, artists and subcultures from across the world.

Doors open at 6:50pm

Date: June 13th – at 7pm
