Paris Is Burning

? Wednesday, October 8 | ⏰ Doors: 6PM | ? Film: 8PM | ? TicTic, Phnom Penh

Before RuPaul’s Drag Race, before voguing hit MTV, there was the New York ballroom scene of the 1980s. Paris Is Burning is the definitive portrait of that world — where fashion, music, dance, and identity came together in underground spaces of joy and survival.

Director Jennie Livingston follows drag queens, trans women, and young Black and Latino men competing in “balls,” where categories ranged from “executive realness” to “vogue.” These events were more than competitions; they were safe havens in an era of poverty, racism, and the AIDS crisis. The music, the dancing, the runway struts — everything was about self-expression and claiming visibility.

Wax & Film is where music and movies collide — and here music becomes liberation. Voguing soundtracks, house beats, and ballroom chants built the foundation for global pop culture as we know it. To watch this film is to witness the origin of a movement that still echoes today.
