Queer as Folklore

Join any Pride march and you are likely to see a glorious display of papier-mâché unicorn heads trailing sequins, drag queens wearing mermaid tails and more fairy wings than you can shake a trident at. But these are not just accessories: they are queer symbols with historic roots.

To celebrate the launch of Queer as Folklore by Sacha Coward, we’re screening a series of well loved films with queer themes that are often overlooked.
