We made a film!
Back in September we challenged the queer community in Hackney to film themselves and send those clips in, the aim was to record one ordinary day in the queer lives of Hackney residents, to show queer folks at play, at work, at rest.
More than ever LGBTQI+ lives are under pressure and threat from the media and society, queer venues are disappearing, queer her/history is not being recorded. So this was a chance to record the everyday life that we and others don’t see, of what its like to be queer and live in Hackney, how we exist and support each other, the challenges and ways the community comes together, to cover working, creativity, expression, housing, mobility, ageing, support, love, all in one day as a snap shot of life, to show its diversity, and not just the more visible members, but the everyday people and a glimpse into their daily routine.
In addition, we went out with a camera crew and filmed extra footage of queer businesses and community groups and nightlife. And you delivered! A huge thanks to all those who made this documentary possible.
Now its been edited together into a queer snapshot, covering 24 hours of One Queer Day in Hackney, and we are showing it for free in the big screen at the Rio, so come along, if you were involved or not and see what its all about!
