Are You Proud?

Directed by: Ashley Joiner | 95 min | UK | 2019

COME ONE, COME ALL! This community screening is ADMISSION BY DONATION!

The LGBTQ+ movement in the UK has fought bruising battles for equality. Directed by Ashley Joiner, Are You Proud? brings together rare archive footage and interviews from across a spectrum of historical campaigns to celebrate the movement’s landmark achievements .

Gay Pride, the Gay Liberation Front and Stonewall are among the organizations recognized in a film that doesn’t just look back, but asks tough questions about the future.

50 years after the Stonewall riots in America, this is a timely moment to take stock and question how much attitudes have changed and fundamental rights have been achieved.
