"Gen Silent" Documentary Matinee & Discussion

"Gen Silent" Documentary Matinee & Discussion In-Person

Join us for a lunchtime showing of "Gen Silent." Popcorn and coffee/tea will be provided, feel free to bring lunch with you.

 

The generation that fought hardest to come out of the closet is going back in to survive.

What would you do if you were old, disabled or ill – and the person feeding you put down the spoon and said that you are going to hell unless you change your sexual preference?

Sound absurd? Social workers around the world say it’s happening every day.

Gen Silent is the critically acclaimed documentary from filmmaker Stu Maddux that asks six LGBT seniors if they will hide their friends, their spouses- their entire lives in order to survive in the care system.

 

The film is not rated and runs 1hr03min. It will be followed by a discussion for those who are interested.
