Starring Ben Whishaw & Rebecca Hall, Peter Hujar's Day is a film adaptation of the book by Linda Rosenkrantz. It invites audiences into a single day in 1974 with groundbreaking queer photographer Peter Hujar. Set entirely in one room, the film re-creates the conversation between Hujar and Rosenkrantz, recorded on audio tape nearly fifty years ago and later published as a book. Through their freewheeling, intimate exchange, Hujar shares vivid stories of his interactions with literary and cultural icons like William Burroughs, Candy Darling, Susan Sontag and Allen Ginsberg, while also reflecting on the rhythms of everyday life in 1970s New York.
