Join us for the next gathering of the movie club about gay classics where we will watch a movie - on a 3x2 meter screen, talk about it and about other movies and series we have seen and liked.
It is free to attend. We will gather in a relaxed place next to Westerpark in Amsterdam, drinks and snacks - potluck style.

Skilfully directed by one-man movie studio Matt Carter, this gay-themed British rugby movie is packed with big drama, sparky comedy and powerfully emotional romance.
It is an ambitious debut and though a more rigorous edit may have evened out its overall tone, it is clear that Carter's heart and head were certainly in the game.
In From The Side offers a glimpse into the life of a group of friends who play rugby together and happen to be gay. It's different from pretty much every other film I've seen in recent years.
