Pisa 1979-2009: The First Gay Parade 30 Years Later (2014)
On November 24 in 1979 a brand new event took place in Pisa: the police gave permission to stage the first national gay parade, organized in collaboration with the City of Pisa. The march was an unexpected success, with hundreds of gays and transgender people coming from every part of Italy. They paraded openly and the city was partly friendly and partly hostile. This documentary features personal memories and political comments from the past to the present. Using images of contemporary society and exclusive archival material, twelve people, participants and organizers, recall how that historic day was created, its relevance and consequences for their own lives and for the gay community as a whole.
