Lost Underground is an experimental dance film that delves into the essential role queer clubs play as sanctuaries of communal care and self-expression. These spaces, imbued with desire and intimacy, cultivate deep connections among individuals through music and movement. The film contemplates the significance of these environments as conduits of freedom, preservation, and liberation, tracing their evolution both before and during the pandemic.

Accompanying the film is a large, sculptural structure that disrupts the room while also guiding participants through a path before they are fully confronted with the film. This structure acts as a portal, partially obscuring the space in a way that mimics the entrances of queer clubs, where visibility is gradual, allowing visitors to be drawn towards the music rather than immediately seeing the entirety of the scene. It evokes the experience of stepping into a club, where one's perception unfolds incrementally, inviting engagement and discovery.
