Beyond Stonewall

Newly restored for the 50th Anniversary of the Stonewall Riots

Before Stonewall
The Making of a

Gay and Lesbian Community

Newly restored for the 50th
Anniversary of the Stonewall Riots

In 1969 the police raided the Stonewall Inn, a gay bar in New York City's Greenwich Village, leading to three nights of rioting by the city's gay community. With this outpouring of courage and unity the gay liberation movement had begun.

Before Stonewall pries open the closet door, setting free the dramatic story of the sometimes horrifying public and private existences experienced by LGBT Americans since the early 1900's.
Revealing and often humorous, this widely acclaimed film relives the emotionally-charged sparking of today's gay rights movement, from the events that led to the fevered 1969 riots to many other milestones in the brave fight for acceptance.

Experience the fascinating and unforgettable, decade-by-decade history of homosexuality in America through eye-opening historical footage and amazing interviews with those who lived through an often brutal closeted history.
"Entertaining and enlightening."  - Los Angeles Times

"Funny, sad, courageous and touching." - Seattle Times

“Intelligent, moving. Adroitly mixes old newsreel and film footage, interviews and even home movies.”  - The New York Times

"You owe it to yourself to see it." - Judith Crist, WOR-TV
