Freedom: 50 Years of Pride

This documentary will reveal the surprising and overlooked history of Pride: its origins, its struggles and its triumphs. Made in creative and editorial collaboration with acclaimed filmmaker Stephen Daldry and playwright Joe Robertson, the documentary will tell the story of Pride primarily through first-person testimony and archive footage. We'll hear from people who shaped the movement from the start, facing down intense hostility and discrimination, as well as from a younger generation for whom Pride has always been part of their life and identity. The film will also tackle difficult questions: is Pride sufficiently inclusive of all voices in the LGBTQ+ community? Is it a protest or a celebration? Has Pride sold out? This is a love letter to Pride… but a love letter from a slightly grumpy lover.
