Historically relevant

German-born American documentarist Lilli Vincenz deserves to be better known for her chronicling of the Gay civil rights movement, with this a representative work shot in Central Park in 1970.

Like a Shirley Clarke or William Greaves, Lilli takes her work seriously, here combining evocative interviews (generally presented just by voice over) with candid footage of the milieu of folks at a gay-in staged at the park. Like her 7-minute 1968 short "The Second Greatest Minority" shot at a Philadelphia march, the simplicity of the filmmaking does not detract from its "you are there" power decades later.
