Peter Hujar's Day
directed by Ira Sachs, USA 2025, 76'
An adaptation of Linda Rosenkrantz’s book. Experience a single day in 1974 with pioneering photographer Peter Hujar. The film is set in a single room and recreates a conversation between Hujar and Linda Rosenkrantz, recorded on audio tape nearly 50 years ago and later published in book form. Hujar shares vivid stories of his interactions with literary and cultural icons such as William Burroughs, Candy Darling, Susan Sontag, and Allen Ginsberg, and reflects on the rhythm of everyday life in 1970s New York.
