"Miss Bixe Ultraviolência Queer," a short film approved under the Paulo Gustavo Federal Law, which aims to portray the transformation of a university party in the city of Ilha Solteira into a vibrant and revolutionary LGBT event. The project seeks to explore how the party became an essential gathering point for the local queer community, highlighting not only individual experiences but also the power of collectivity and art in building a space of resistance and celebration. The idea is to show how the transformation of this university party into a queer event is much more than a simple shift in audience; it is a reflection of the struggle for visibility, respect, and the freedom to be who you are, in an environment where art becomes a form of resistance and empowerment. The short film not only documents a story but also celebrates the existence and courage of people who, by coming together in a space like this, challenge norms and create new possibilities of belonging.
