SHORT DOCUMENTARY

JOHN HEMMER & THE SHOWGIRLS takes a behind-the-scenes peek inside Lou Walters’ famed Latin Quarter nightclub in New York City.

In this intimate portrait, a one-time entertainer during the heyday of America’s nightclub era and his band of showgirls and performers share vanishing histories as they face the rigors and rewards of growing older.

Despite life’s challenges, Hemmer and his showgirls resurrect the Latin Quarter’s legacy and discover a new purpose for their lives along the way.
