Arthur Dong's LGBTQ Stories (BLU-RAY) Pre-Order May 14/24 Coming to Our Shelves July 9/24

With over 150 awards to his name, the full scope of Arthur Dong’s storytelling mastery is brought to light in this Blu-ray collection of films that explore the LGBTQ experience. These critically acclaimed and award-winning films powerfully illustrate the many faces of the gay rights struggle in America, and dramatically reveal the social consequences of individual actions in America’s culture war over LGBTQ issues. 

 

Coming Out Under Fire (1994) profiles gay and lesbian World War II servicemembers confronting the military’s first anti-gay policies. Family Fundamentals (2002) looks into the personal and political lives of conservative Christian families with gay and lesbian offspring. Licensed To Kill (1997) is an uncompromising portrait of convicted murderers of gay men. Out Rage ’69 (1995) chronicles firsthand accounts of the Stonewall Rebellion, a seminal chapter in the modern fight for LGBTQ equality. 

 

The 4K digital restoration of Coming Out Under Fire was created by IndieCollect and the UCLA Film & Television Archive under the supervision of filmmaker Arthur Dong. Out Rage ‘69 was episode 1 of a 4 part series entitled The Question of Equality, which was a Testing the Limits Production.
