Since 2006, the Marda Loop Justice Film Festival has presented essential documentaries that are thought-provoking and move social justice forward. As part of their justREEL series, they are featuring the recent Canadian doc, Sex, Sin & 69, which explores the human rights trajectory of the LGBTQ2 community using the 1969 Federal Bill C-150 as a pivot point.
Bill C-150 modernized the Canadian Criminal Code and was in response to Calgarian Everett Klippert’s Supreme Court case. Kevin Allen, who has written extensively about Everett, will be doing a post-screening queer history chat with the Film Festival’s Lily Cai.
This screening is online and free, but you need to reserve a ticket. Join us on Tuesday, June 8th—the screening window will be from 5:30 PM-midnight!
