Abra as portas para o Ballroom

Abstract

In a society that consumes more and more audiovisual and dynamic content to understand the message quickly, it is essential that documentary films carry out this quest to deepen themes and reach social knowledge with the intention of promoting debates, thoughts, learning and new perspectives. Thus, the person who wants to desire a documentary film must understand, at least, a synthesis of concepts, theories, essential characteristics of the genre and modes of analysis. In this specific study, the result gathered interviews, images and music that refer to the roots of the Ballroom community, the cultural elements present in it, the general warrior it has, and the history of struggle of minority groups to start and maintain it. The film projects these voices to viewers and shows the need for spaces to open their doors to the right people.
