Labyris Rising

An homage to Kenneth Anger's Scorpio Rising and to a part of Toronto's lesbian life in the early 1980’s. The homoeroticism of Scorpio Risingcombined with new lesbian enthusiasm were the inspirations to document friends and acquaintances hanging out in various lesbian locales. The pool scene was shot at the notorious Fly by Night Lounge which was the first lesbian bar in Toronto owned and operated by lesbians and open almost nightly.
