To Film Enthusiasts city-wide.

This screening is part of our dazzling six-film Queer Film Festival running during Pride Week in collaboration with Christchurch Heroes. This four-day mini-festival is open to the public, ie non-CFS members, with free entry to all Christchurch Art Gallery screenings (koha/donations always appreciated) on a first-to-arrive basis. Limited free (or one cent) tickets must be booked in advance to the Alice (alice.co.nz) and Lumière (lumierecinemas.co.nz) cinema screenings (8pm 7 March and 4pm 9 March); small fee may apply.

This screening is director Desiree Akhavan's ‘The Miseducation of Cameron Post’.

In 1993, a teenage girl is forced into a gay conversion therapy centre by her conservative guardians. She bonds with some fellow residents as they pretend to go along with the process.

A USA production, 2018, 90 minutes.

“Generously peppered with biting humour and warmed by a generous spirit that extends understanding, if not forgiveness, even to the religious zealot characters.” Leslie Felperin, 'Hollywood Reporter'
