6 Step Story

Logline: Following the Civil rights, feminist, and gay rights movements, Hustle emerged in 1972 as a social partner dance in the streets of the South Bronx where the stakes of survival were always high for the black and brown teens that created it. This feature length documentary will flip the white hetero script of Saturday Night Fever to uncover the true story of disco’s signature dance form and its continued cultural relevance today. Join us in a dance as we lead you through Hustle’s historical roots and evolution, follow its current global resurgence, and celebrate a community and practice that stands the test of time.
