Both timeless and immediate, Glitter From Dust is an important archive of untold Cuban LGBTQ histories. Each of six episodes in this documentary mini-series is a portrait of one subject. From the first clandestine drag shows in the country to forced isolation during the HIV crisis, each individual's personal experience speaks to different elements of queer history in Cuba. The daring and dedicated individuals featured in this series fought for equality and paved the way for future generations of LGBTQ people, both in Santa Clara and across the country. Through their stories, we learn about both the dark history of oppression in Cuba and how the country is changing as a result of their work and activism.
