Step into a world where music, mystery, and mayhem collide in “Phantom of Paradise,” a cinematic masterpiece that transcends time and genre. A film that defies conventions and dances on the edge of fantasy and reality.

Watch the hauntingly beautiful tale of Swan, a music tycoon with a sinister agenda, and Winslow Leach, the disfigured composer seeking redemption.

With an amazing soundtrack and avant-garde visuals, this cult classic pushes boundaries and celebrates the magic of the unconventional. Introduced by Harriet Taylor, producer, writer and director of SWITCH.

This event is brought to you in partnership with SWITCH and Queer Vision Film Festival.
