 Radical Projections:
Films to inform and inspire action in Bradford and Leeds
February & March 2010
Cruel and Unusual
Sun 21 Feb, 7pm - The Common Place, Leeds
Sun 28 Feb, 5:30pm - 1in12 Club, Bradford
To highlight LGBT History Month, we bring you this outstanding human rights documentary about incarcerated transgender women forced to live in US male prisons, and the abuse and refusal of treatment they face. “At a time when torture has haltingly become part of the national conversation, 'Cruel and Unusual' draws emotionally devastating attention to victims of violence who are persecuted for their stubborn visibility within the penal system - but remain invisible to an indifferent world outside.”
www.cruelandunusualfilm.com - 66 mins, USA, 2006, Not rated
FREE entry - suggested donation ￡3.
Please stay for a friendly discussion after each film screening.
To see these films you need to be a member or signed-in guest of either The Common Place or 1 in 12 Club. It is easy and cheap to join, but it takes a couple of days to process your membership. See the membership sections of www.1in12.com and www.thecommonplace.org.uk for more details.
Wheelchair users can access The Common Place but unfortunately not the 1 in 12 Club.
A series of films showing in collaboration with The Common Place in Leeds.
