Thank God Its Queer celebrates the fifth anniversary of AND THEN WE DANCED (2019), an underseen gay Georgian masterpiece that came to the United States just in time for lockdown in March 2020—and now it's back on the big screen! Levan Gelbakhiani plays Georgian dancer Merab, who, with his best friend Mary (Ana Javakhishvili), has been training for years for a spot in the National Georgian Ensemble. But the arrival of a beautiful new dancer (Bachi Valishvili) throws Merab off balance, sparking intense rivalry, romantic desire, and a dance to Robyn's "Honey" that may cause him to risk his future.
Addressing homosexual taboos in the traditionally hyper masculine art form of Georgian dance, the brave production of this film was haunted by death threats, protests, and was even choreographed anonymously after being universally blacklisted by the Georgian dance society. AND THEN WE DANCED is a massive cultural achievement and a stunning, sweet, sad, and sexy film you'll long remember.
