Delightful Short Queer Film “Inside The Beauty Bubble” Shows in 2 shorts programs at Sebastopol Documentary Film Festival
Enter The Beauty Bubble Salon & Museum, a pastel dreamland of 3,000 vintage beauty artifacts in the desert community of Joshua Tree, California and meet its owner, proprietor, and “America’s hairstorian” Jeff Hafler. Inside The Beauty Bubble chronicles Hafler’s struggle to keep his roadside attraction afloat during a remarkable year that changed his life and those of his husband and son. In doing so, the film tells a story of family, fabulous-fness and folk art, and provides a reminder that sometimes strong people on the margins hold a community together.
