sandik Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 This just screened at the Twist Film Festival in Seattle (and I missed it, dammit). Am posting it here in case someone else in this group gets a look at it -- come back and report. REBELS ON POINTE Bobbi Jo Hart; 2017; Canada; 90 min.; in English, Spanish, and Italian with English subtitles Les Ballets Trockadero de Monte Carlo is an all-gay male ballet company founded over forty years ago. This cinéma vérité feature combines archival footage and conversations with the artistic director, critics, and family members for an affectionate look at “The Trocks.” Get to know them as we travel around the world and gain an inside look at their joyfully inspired performances, familial bonds, and intimate relationships. Throughout the years, from the difficulty of acquiring funding to the devastation of AIDS, their playful and humorous yet very serious dance techniques have propelled them into the spotlight as the rebel ambassadors of ballet. trailer website Link to comment
