Ben Whishaw and Rebecca Hall star in Ira Sachs’s stunning new film, a richly cinematic rendering of the meeting between acclaimed photographer Peter Hujar and artist-writer Linda Rosenkrantz.

In 1974, Peter Hujar describes the routines and rituals that define an artist's life, capturing a single day's activities from interactions with cultural icons of the day, including Allen Ginsberg, William S. Burroughs and Susan Sontag and the texture and energy of downtown New York in its heyday.

Elegant and intimate — and a dazzling showcase for the two performers at its centre — Peter Hujar's Day is both a masterful portrait of a time & place and a captivating film about the way art emerges from the intimate details of everyday life.
