Film Screening: Learning To Be Naked
Learning To Be Naked offers a deeply human story that celebrates the transformative art of burlesque.
Winner Best Documentary at La Femme Film Festival and CA Women’s Film Festival!
Learning To Be Naked offers a deeply human story that celebrates the transformative art of burlesque. Exploring how burlesque becomes a space for renegotiating shame, visibility, disability, queerness, and gender, the film dishes up a dose of radical body joy, burlesque sparkle, and a whole lot of heart!
Challenging stereotypes about what bodies deserve to be seen and celebrated, the film dismantles outdated notions about beauty, ability, and identity. Like a caterpillar metamorphosing inside a chrysalis, burlesque provides a safe space for performers to grow, spread their wings, and land on stage feeling more confident, beautiful, and free.
Screening will be introduced by Mx. Pucks A'Plenty, who is one of the performers featured in the film, and they will answer questions about the film afterwards.
“ A fantastic watch! It’s an emotional roller coaster ride …”
