Queerama is a film created from the treasure trove of the BFI National Archive.

The story traverses a century of gay experiences, encompassing persecution and prosecution, injustice, love and desire, identity, secrets, forbidden encounters, sexual liberation and Pride. The soundtrack weaves the lyrics and music of John Grant and Hercules & Love Affair with the images and guides us intimately into the relationships, desires, fears and expressions of gay men and women in the 20th century – a century of incredible change.

Screening to mark 50 years since the Sexual Offences Act and to celebrate the start of Belfast Pride.
