Gays Against Guns Doc Gets U.S. Premiere, Oct. 16 at NYC’s NewFest

Friday, October 16

NewFest Presents the U.S. premiere of

Gays Against Guns (a documentary)

6:45pm at the SVA Theater (333 W. 23rd St. btw. 8th/9th Aves.)

Founded following the Pulse nightclub massacre of 2016, Gays Against Guns (GAG) has spent the past decade on the frontlines of America’s gun violence epidemic through a series of very public, highly theatrical protest actions that pointedly convey the group’s deeply felt grief, outrage, and resolve.

Paul Rowley, an Irish immigrant, directs this collection of footage from street actions and candid personal reflections—including some sharp observations by the “Pope of Trash” himself, filmmaker John Waters (whose cutting wit pairs well with GAG’s hardwired self-awareness).

The October 16 screening will be followed by a Q&A.

Tickets are $19.50 for the screening and $14.50 for a Virtual Single Ticket (Oct. 15-30).
