Documentário filmado em meados dos anos 80 e só finalizado em 1990. "Paris is Burning" é uma crônica sobre a "ball culture" de New York e as minorias culturais que participavam e organizavam este evento: comunidade homossexual latina e afro-americana. Ball Culture foi uma "cena underground" muito específica, onde se misturava desfile de moda com habilidades de dança como o breakstreet, movimentos hieróglifos do Antigo Egito e ginástica olímpica. A enigmática cantora-performer Grace Jones utilizou desta cena para compôr seu estilo.
