Dancing In the Light(2025)

Dancing in the Light is a documentary that chronicles Nelson Sullivan, a pioneering figure in New York's queer community during the 1980s. Armed with a video camera he rarely set down, Sullivan documented the city's vibrant club scene with an insider's eye, capturing a marginalized subculture at a pivotal moment in history. The film draws from his extensive video archive to tell both his story and that of the underground world he inhabited. Often called the first vlogger, Sullivan's raw footage offers an intimate portrait of queer nightlife, activism, and community during the AIDS crisis era. His legacy stands as a vital historical record of a time and place that might otherwise have been lost.
