We kick off our Pride celebrations with a special Film Club screening of a modern LGBTQ classic: a beautifully-shot summer story set in 1980s northern Italy, following a young person’s journey through first love, self‑discovery and the intense emotions of a transformative season. Atmospheric, thoughtful and internationally acclaimed, it remains one of the standout queer films of the 21st century.  

• This film will be shown in The Studio Theatre, dlr LexIcon, A96 H283
• All are welcome, no booking required.
