THE BALL is a feature documentary narrated by ballroom household persona Jack Mizrahi. The film was in the making for over a decade. The House of Mizrahi has existed for over 30 years, creating a legacy for decades. With a glimpse into the life of a few, we get to experience a story of in-powering a culture that sheltered generations of LGBTQ members from social harshness, rejection, and homelessness. With a commanding preacher-like voice, Jack Mizrahi tells us a story of perseverance and ultimate acceptance. He conducts the history of his community and striving for success that he was never allowed to. Jack assembles the ballroom’s future in his early prophecies, and we are getting a front-row seat to its becoming.
