Film program in collaboration with FilmKoepel Haarlem, inspired by the exhibition

On Wednesday March 26th we organize in the FilmKoepel in Haarlem a special film evening that is entirely dedicated to the exhibition Let love rule – Dolly Bellefleur 35 years on the barricadesAfter an introduction by Dolly Bellefleur, the film Pride (2014) by Matthew Warchus will be shown.

About Pride
The film Pride (2014) is a true story that takes place in the United Kingdom in the 80s, during the miners' strike. A group of homosexual activists decide to show solidarity with the strikers and collect money to support them, but the union is ashamed of this action. The supporters ignore this and leave in a van to a mining village in Wales to deliver their donations in person.
