Booksmart
Director Olivia Wilde
Stars Kaitlyn Dever, 
Beanie Feldstein 
On the eve of their high school graduation, two academic superstars and best friends realize they should have worked less and played more. Determined not to fall short of their peers, the girls try to cram four years of fun into one night.

Sat 19 Feb, 5pm
Pride
Director Matthew Warchus
Stars Bill Nighy, 
Imelda Staunton
British stage director Matthew Warchus' first venture in filmmaking Pride -based on a true story that had slipped through the cracks of history- won the Queer Palm at the 2014 Cannes Film Festival. And rightly so!

In sympathy for another marginalised group and seeing a common enemy in Margaret Thatcher, a group of gay rights activists offered their support to striking miners in this warm-hearted, hilarious film. 

Sat 19 Feb, 8pm
Lola
Director Laurent Micheli
Stars Mya Bollaers, 
Benoit Magimel
Just when Lola, 18 years old and transgender, learns that she can finally have surgery, her mother, who is her only financial support, passes away. Abiding by her mother’s last wishes, Lola and her father, who are permanently in conflict, undertake a journey all the way to the Belgian coast.

Join us to celebrate LGBT+ History Month with these three often hilarious and beautiful films. This LGBT History Month recognise the creativity, imagination and innovation of LGBTQ+ creators throughout history.

LGBT+ History Month is an annual month-long observance of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender history, and the history of the gay rights and related civil rights movements  and is intended as a means to raise awareness of, and combat prejudice against the LGBT community while celebrating its achievement and diversity.

Schools OUT UK – The LGBT+ Education Charity (a registered charity since February 2015), is the founding organiser of LGBT+ History Month UK. LGBT History Month provides role models, builds community, and represents a civil rights statement about the contributions of the LGBTQ+ community. LGBT+ History Month is a month-long celebration that is specific to Hungary, the UK, the US, Canada, Australia, Brazil, Greenland, and the city of Berlin.

In the UK LGBT+ History Month coincides with a major celebration of the 2003 abolition of Section 28.
