Hey film buds, This June we are continuing to recognize and celebrate humanity’s diversity on film. For those unaware, June is Pride Month. It is a unique celebration born from protest and activism with a presence now felt around the world. Here at the Film Buds, we’ll be spending Pride looking at the interesting history and modern representation of the LGBTQIA+ community on film. Introduction - 00:00Opening ChatWelcome to Pride MonthPride History - 13:31To give our discussion historical context, we’re beginning with a film that’s over 100 years old. Different from the Othersis a German social issue film that is currently incomplete.
