Wildness: Discussion with the Filmmakers

The Scholar & Feminist 2013: Utopia kicked off with a screening of Wildness, a film set in the historic Silver Platter, a Los Angeles bar that has been a home for Latin/LGBT immigrant communities since 1963. Wildness follows what happens when a group of young artists create a weekly performance art/dance party which explodes into creativity and conflict. The screening was followed by this discussion with filmmakers Wu Tsang and Roya Rastegar, moderated by Janet Jakobsen.
