A Home Called Vogue (South Africa) by Yazeed Kamaldien

The Vogue ball scene in Cape Town and its pioneer Kirvan Fortuin create a safe space for queer people to express their creativity and individuality. But in the world outside, queer people are still not accepted and sometimes this has fatal consequences, making the Vogue balls even more pertinent as a space for not only queer expression but also survival.

Running time: 00:29:40
