La boĂźte Ă frissons
Synopsis
For decades, Le Tango, a legendary LGBTQ+ dance hall in Parisâs Marais district, welcomed everyone who loved to dance, regardless of gender or orientation. When the building was put up for sale in 2020, its music stopped, threatening to erase a vital community refuge. This documentary traces both the vibrant history and the fierce fight to save this iconic space. Through personal stories from regulars and activistsâGrĂ©goire, Giovanna, Christian, Livia, and othersâthe film revisits nights of drag balls, Dalida tributes, and joyous Madisons, revealing how Le Tango became a symbol of freedom and belonging. As filmmaker Antoine Vergez follows HervĂ© and the Tango 3.0 collectiveâs three-year struggle to reopen the club, the film becomes both a love letter to queer nightlife and a chronicle of collective resistance to cultural disappearance.
