10s Across the Borders - CinemAsia On Tour

3 trailblazers in the underground ballroom scenes of Malaysia, Thailand, and the Philippines take us into the heart of their communities as we follow their journeys to build a flourishing queer community across Southeast Asia.

3 trailblazers in the underground ballroom scenes of Southeast Asia take us into the heart of their communities. Teddy from Malaysia, Sun from Thailand, and Xyza from the Philippines each grapple with their individual stories of discrimination and resistance. In the world of ballroom dancing, they are trailblazers who have found new families and built safe havens for queer life to thrive unabated and bodies to express themselves freely.


7 years in the making, the film is an intimate portrait and a defiant celebration of ballroom culture as it travels from its origins in New York’s Black and Latinx queer communities, which Teddy and Xyza visit and learn from, to its global imprint in Southeast Asia. A collaborative effort between filmmaker and protagonists, 10s Across the Borders celebrates queer life at its most vibrant and resilient, one walk at a time.

The screening of '10s Across the Borders' on May 17 will include a Ballroom Performance by Andre Damian.

Andre Damian, founding Mother of the Utrecht Ballroom Scene, has been in ballroom since 2019, winning dozens of trophies across Europe in the categories Arms Control, New Way, Sex Siren, and more. As the Director of Ballroom Works, they focus on uplifting queer and trans people of color through weekly ballroom classes, workshops, community programs, and balls.
