Overview

In 1990, seven young male dancers joined Madonna on her most controversial world tour. Their journey was captured in Truth or Dare. As a self-proclaimed 'mother' to her six gay dancers plus straight Oliver, Madonna used the film to make a stand on gay rights and freedom of expression. The dancers became paragons of pride, inspiring people all over the world to dare to be who you are. 25 years later, the dancers share their own stories about life during and after the tour. What does it really take to express yourself?

There's undeniable curiosity value to the subject. But once its flashback aspects are exhausted, "Pose" doesn't prove all that revealing or substantial, its last third feeling like a padded over-stretch of thin material.
