WORLD OF PRIDE FEATURE: For decades Holland has been known as one of the LGBTQ-friendliest countries in the world. But how did gay emancipation develop in the Netherlands? How did this country get from executing sodomites in the 18th century to being the first in the world to legalize gay marriage in 2001? And are the Dutch really as tolerant as is claimed? Monument of Pride tells the uncensored story of the 'pink revolution' in the Netherlands. The film pays tribute to the 30 year old Homomonument in Amsterdam and to everyone who has fought for the freedom we often take for granted.
The Short Film, Rainbow Voices of Aotearoa New Zealand, will play with this feature.
