A queer film screening and social meetup for the LGBTQ+ community (16+) in Edinburgh
As part of our series of quarterly LGBTQ+ film events, in partnership with our friends at LGBT Youth Scotland, join us for a film screening and social meetup to watch the 2020 film, Rurangi.
After skipping town a decade ago, transgender activist Caz Davis returns to the remote, politically divided dairy community of Rurangi, hoping to reconnect with his estranged father, who hasn't heard from him since before Caz transitioned.
LGBTQ+ people and their allies (16+) all welcome to this queer and trans-positive drama.
Hosted by LGBT Health and Wellbeing and LGBT Youth Scotland.

COVID-19
All COVID rules and restrictions are now lifted in Scotland. However, the virus has not gone away. The Scottish Government is now promoting the use of “COVID sense” to inform how best to protect people. With that in mind, we are continuing to have COVID safety measures in place to reduce risk. Any event may be cancelled or postponed due to unforeseen circumstances or if Scottish Government guidance changes.
