Summary
The music...the spectacle...the costumes...the grace. Ballroom dance is enjoying a renaissance here in America, as well as abroad. Set in the swinging world of same-sex competitive ballroom dancing, this entertaining documentary goes inside that little-known world, following four men and women on and off the dance floor over four years. Not only an immersive character study, HOT TO TROT is also an idiosyncratic attack on bigotry against LGBTQ people. Winner of the Audience Award at the **NewFest New York's LGBT Film Festival.** Official Selection at the **Garden State Film Festival.** *"Ultimately, it's the social, sexual political and artistic power of the same-sex dance phenomenon that gives the topic its unique heft and vitality." - Gary Goldstein, **The Los Angeles Times***
