RISD professor Henry Horenstein's latest film is Blitto Underground, a deep dive into Buenos Aires Bohemia, guided by a struggling club entertainer named Pablo Blitto Torre. It’s about inclusivity, acceptance, and community—the community Blitto has built of his friends, fellow entertainers, and fellow "freaks," as he calls them.

Blitto’s world of music, individualism, love, and self-expression on the margins is a fluid world and Blitto Underground embraces this fluidity in a verité style as it follows its characters wherever they go. One unexpected place Blitto goes is domesticity and humanity, as we follow the vegan Blitto to animal rescue work, dog love, and the warmth of his given family. We think you will feel warmth towards Blitto and all his extended "family."

Henry will be in attendance and do a Q&A after the film!
