“Gays against Guns” follows the journey of the association of the same name over ten years, from the Pulse massacre to now. From disruptive protests and haunting Human Beings demonstrations to confronting the gun lobby and the NRA puppets head-on in the corridors of power, the film illustrates how the association has become a dynamic force in the gun violence prevention movement. Taking place in a time of huge social upheaval in America (the Women’s March, Black Lives Matter, the Capitol riots, and an escalation in hate crime fuelled by anti-LGBTQIA+ rhetoric and legislation), the film interweaves intimate portraits of activists with heart-wrenching stories from those directly impacted by gun violence.

This session is followed by a Q&A with Hal Moskowitz, member of the Board of Directors of the Gay Men’s Health Crisis (GMHC), previously a member of ACT UP, and more recently a founding member of GAG – Gays Against Guns.
