The second of two short film programmes featuring works that blur the boundaries between music and film from artists who cross and redefine those long held divisions. This programme highlights contemporary works.

The club as a community and a site for performed politics: deep/ queer house, vogue femme, lipsync and ballroom.
Save the dates for Episode 12.
