Almost a tone poem, this is a collage of sounds and images: gay, Black men dance, sing, and recite poetry. They call each other to arms to parade and flaunt their race and sexual orientation. They call on each other to rewrite history, to pervert the language, to "be freaky and free," and to confront America in order to redefine it in a way that gives them standing as equals.

是一部关于美国黑人同性恋的第一人称纪录片电影。 第一人称纪录片最早出现在上世纪六、七十年代的北美和西欧。当时身份政治白热化，女权运动、反种族歧视运动， 同时期，后现代主义和后结构主义思潮也促使着一种更加自省的纪录片类型出现。电影人和艺术家开始把镜头转向自己，以进行自我观察，并记录自己的社会参与。Marlon Riggs的《Togues Untied》(1989）产生于这样的时代大背景。作者所在群体所遭遇的是双重压迫，种族和性取向。不再沉默，作者选择用夸张的演绎去表达、甚至可以说是去“索取” 作者及他所处的美国黑人同性恋群体急迫需要的认同感。

1989年，在纽约，电影人珍妮•利文斯顿以一部《巴黎在燃烧》记录了地下舞场的奢糜场景。影片是一部夜店时尚大片，也是对那些因勇于追求自我而被逐出家门的同性恋、跨性别者的一份家一般的慰藉。虽然笼罩在艾滋病与偏见的重重阴影之下，《巴黎在燃烧》依旧为我们带来了一场炫魅与激情，梦想与渴望的盛宴。它更是引领着迷失的人们不屈畏惧而继续前行、不屈审视而继续闪耀、不屈于世俗而勇做自我。
