In the shadow of Chippendales, male exotic dancing in South Central Los Angeles thrived from the late 1980s until the early 2000s at clubs like The Right Track, Tigers, and The Boom Boom Room.

Name of the Game introduces audiences to iconic dancers past and present and the women who support them, both as fans and managers, revealing the fascinating history of this vibrant scene and its intersection with the origins of hip hop culture. Through interviews and eye-popping performances, the story of Black male exoticism unfolds on screen as it's never been told before: unfiltered, uncensored, and uncut.

Name of the Game screens at the Plaza Theater on August 23, 2025, with a special Q&A session with the filmmakers!
