We’ll kick off this year’s Scholar & Feminist Conference on Utopia with a screening of Wu Tsang and Roya Rastegar’s film Wildness, a magical and explosive exploration of “safe space,” queer community, creativity, and class.
Set in the historic Silver Platter, a Los Angeles bar that has been a home for Latin/LBGT immigrant communities since 1963, Wildness follows what happens when a group of young artists create a weekly performance art/dance party called Wildness, which explodes into creativity and conflict. Filmmakers Wu Tsang and Roya Rastegar join us for a conversation following the film.
This event is free and open to the public. Venue is wheelchair accessible.
