Tackling Identity and Traditions
In a small town in Mexico,
once a year, men transform
into women and become the
Chunta. One group is made up
of traditionalists who believe that
only straight men should wear
the gowns and makeup, and
the other welcomes dancers of
all identities– especially those
who face violence for being out
and proud. The Northwest Film Center presents a screening of the
documentary “The Chunta,” that gets up close and personal with two
rival dance groups as they prepare for the Chunta, on Thursday, Aug.
15 at 7 p.m. the Portland Art Museum. The film’s director Genevieve
Roudané will be in attendance for a question and answer following
the film. You can also come early for a reception that begins at 6 p.m.
