Jay Jay Revlon Founder of the UK Queer Men Of Colour + New Popular Club night #TheMocSociety which caters to men of colour and friends in addition to #LetsHaveaKiki the party a Monthly at the curtain... Presents a 2 day takeover for black history month with this special screening of most popular and award winning queer film Moonlight + A talk on being Coloured Queer Man and Growing Up in the UK.
Moonlight: Based on the play In Moonlight Black Boys Look Blue, Moonlight is a timeless story of human connection and self-discovery, which follows Chiron - a young black man - from childhood to adulthood as he finds his identity and sexuality in a rough neighbourhood of Miami in the 1980s.
At once a vital portrait of contemporary African American life and an intensely personal and poetic meditation on identity, family, friendship, and love, Moonlight is a groundbreaking piece of cinema that reverberates with deep compassion and universal truths.
Anchored by extraordinary performances from a tremendous ensemble cast, Barry Jenkins’s staggering, singular vision is profoundly moving in its portrayal of the moments, people, and unknowable forces that shape our lives and make us who we are.
