Move Ya Body: The Birth of House

PIFF alum Elegance Bratton assembles a mix of interviews with house music pioneers and forgotten innovators, many of them queer and Black, along with impressive archival footage to create a definitive history of house music and a pivotal cultural period. From its beginnings in Chicago through its march to global domination, Bratton reclaims the narrative of this genre and, in a bigger sense, asks compelling questions about who gets credit—and compensation—for culture in America. Featuring interviews with Celeste Alexander, Lady D, Kevin Aviance, and Lena Waithe.

Riveting… a compelling exploration of an influential genre.
