The lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender community has a rich artistic heritage that is worthy of documentation for accurate representation and empowerment. "Flagging" is a documentary currently in production that explores the history of the gay performance art forms "flagging and fanning," which originated in the 1970s in New York City's gay clubs. This improvisational art form combines flags, fans, fashion, and dance, creating a spiritual experience that can be therapeutic for individuals with disabilities. The documentary will delve into the music, flag and fan creation, and the impact of flagging on the community and corporate America, as well as its ability to touch people's hearts. Additionally, the film will showcase the progression of a "hard-core" gay performance art form into a healing and mainstream therapeutic practice, highlighting its use with children and individuals with disabilities.
