IFI & DUBLIN PRIDE 2014: GOD LOVES UGANDA + PANEL DISCUSSION

Director: Roger Ross Williams

83 minutes, U.S., 2013, Colour


The showing will be followed by a panel discussion featuring individuals with direct experience of the Ugandan situation.

Academy-Award-winning filmmaker Roger Ross Williams explores the role of the American Evangelical movement in fuelling Uganda’s terrifying turn towards biblical law and the proposed death penalty for homosexuals. Using interviews and hidden camera footage, the film allows American religious leaders and their young missionaries to explain their positions in their own words.

This film is presented in association with National LGBT Federation and Dublin Pride 2014.

Panellists include: Richard Carson,  CEO, ACET Ireland; Patrick Lynch LGBT activist and board member of NXF; and Juliet Amamure, founder and CEO of Diaspora Women’s Initiaitive (DWI).

There will also be a screening of I Am Divine on June 24th (18.30) as part of the IFI & Dublin Pride 2014 collaboration.
