| Summary |
In 1990, seven young male dancers - 6 gay, 1 straight - joined Madonna on her most controversial tour. On stage and in the iconic film *Truth or Dare*, they showed the world how to express yourself. Now, 25 years later, they reveal the truth about life during and after the tour, when they were ambassadors to the world on behalf of the LGBT community during the height of the AIDS epidemic. STRIKE A POSE is a dramatic tale about overcoming shame and finding the courage to be who you are. Nominated for the Panorama Audience Award and the Teddy Award for Best Documentary at the **Berlin International Film Festival**. Placed in the Top 20 Audience Favorites at the **Hot Docs Canadian International Documentary Festival**. *"A loving, honest portrait of these men who were world-famous for a bright moment, and most importantly, what happens after the limelight goes away." - Katie Walsh, **The Los Angeles Times*** |
