A new award-winning L.A. Times Short Doc, “Stud Country” takes us inside the largest-ever queer line dancing event, which seeks to preserve the lesser known 50-year tradition in L.A.
While the venue that currently hosts the dancers is set to close, the film captures the dancers who have vowed to continue the queer line dancing tradition and the importance of sustaining the community spaces that allow for this kind of movement.
The award-winning film’s directors Lina Abascal and Alexandra Kern joined Lisa McRee with more.
