Coming Out

After a change in the law in 1967, in England and Wales a homosexual act in private between male adults ceased to be a crime. But in the eyes of many it still remained a sin. In Scotland and Northern Ireland it is a sin and a crime. So Coming Out even in England - that is, declaring to the world that one is homosexual - is still a course of action calling for resolution and mental toughness. For to 'come out' fully means telling everyone the truth-parents, children and employers, who may be uncomprehending, hostile, or even positively vindictive.
This documentary film follows the events that surround five young homosexuals in the process of Coming Out. It is set in the context of the biggest assembly of homosexuals Europe has ever seen, when thousands of men and women came out on the streets of London to proclaim that they were gay
