Shirley Clarke Productions

Interview with Jason Holliday aka Aaron Payne. House-boy, would-be cabaret performer, and self-proclaimed hustler giving one man's gin-soaked, pill-popped view of what it was like to be black and gay in 1960s United States. Preserved by the Academy Film Archive in partnership with Milestone Films in 2013.

Left to viewer interpretation, this beautiful dance piece displays a spiritual or religious initiation. A short work, this film was released as part of Shirley Clarke’s Four Journeys Into Mystic Time.
