In March 2025, award-winning Pride LGBTQ+ rights film **Legendary Children (All of Them Queer)** screened in London’s West End at the **Curzon Bloomsbury** cinema as the official finale for **UK LGBT+ History Month 2025**, followed by a live talk and Q&A with **Peter Tatchell** and its pioneer cast. 

Now BAFTA-nominated UK TV distributor **Revelation Films** brings the film to worldwide streaming platforms **Amazon Prime**, **Apple TV** and **Google Play Movies**.

Shot over two years, the film follows historically highly significant 1972 Pride pioneers like Peter, and other key **Gay Liberation Front** (GLF) comrades in Pride’s story through the years, during the UK Pride 50 events of 2022\. It also meets the faces of Pride’s next generation, like Manchester’s Candlelight Vigil, Spain’s huge **Winter Pride** and direct-response actions like Clapham’s **Queer Night Pride**, which reacts to homophobic violence in London.

Peter Tatchell 

One of the film’s headline cast, human rights campaigner **Peter Tatchell,** said: “I hope the film will show that social change is possible and inspire other people to become activists. Even if you can’t do anything else, just amplify what’s happening to LGBTQ+ people in other countries around the world. 

"For people living under dictatorship or repression, knowing that others care is a massive morale boost. It’s psychologically uplifting. I’ve been campaigning for 50 years in support of Palestine’s right to a homeland. As an openly gay man, I’ve had countless Muslim people tell me, ‘I used to hate gays, but your support over the decades has changed my mind.’"

Cast member **Angela Mason CBE** recalls, “I once wrote, ‘When women started to be angry, faggots could be proud’. Gay Lib was a moment when many men did challenge their own masculinity. **Stuart Feather** has written very well on this. He says, ‘Masculinity needs new ideals, modern socialism requires a new masculinity poised on high heels’.”

London’s July 1st 1972 march was arguably the first recognisable Pride march (as we know Pride today) in Europe. The Legendary Children of 1972 went on to spin up a unique brand of managed chaos wherever they went, ensuring the LGBTQ+ community's presence in every part of society could not be ignored. 

The door marked 'Change' was prised open and could never be closed again. Not a history lesson, the film is colourful, rowdy, inspiring, intersectional, irreverent, provocative and at times waspishly funny - but then the Legendary Children are never quite what you’re expecting…

Nathaniel J Hall

Special guests **Neil Bartlett OBE**, rock star **Tom Robinson** and *It’s A Sin* actor **Nathaniel J Hall**, bring perspectives on Pride’s role today in tackling issues of extreme contemporary human rights concern. The late Harvey Milk’s nephew and prominent US activist **Stuart Milk** appears, with a scorching speech against Trump and the Right’s erosion of LGBT+ equality.

The film made its international debut in India’s movie capital Mumbai, during India’s equal marriage vote. Other international screenings include **Winter Pride Spain** and California, winning a Festival Favourites Audience Award at **Palm Springs LGBTQ+ Film Festival**.

Sue Sanders

**Sue Sanders** *,* LGBT+ History Month co-founder, affirmed her faith in young people: “They're leading the way, they're doing magnificent stuff. The trans kids are outside the NHS, who've challenged the Dept for Education... We're in two bits here - we've got to look after older LGBTQ+ people, we've got to give youngsters the strength, the skills to fight the good fight. We need to pass the torch to them.”

Director **Rob Falconer’s** LGBTQ+ work has been seen in many countries, selling out the **Barbican Cinema** main house in 2024 with *Gay Man’s Guide to Safer Sex Director’s Cut 2024* and *Sleeping Dragon*.

The film could only ever have had one title - named after **Holly Johnson’s** iconic LGBTQ+ anthem, (with Holly’s support). The director comments: “The legendary title is no accident. These are all individuals still changing LGBTQ+ lives worldwide 50 years on. 

"Just why a film like this was vital to make couldn't be more painfully demonstrated now by the deaths of cast members and changemakers like **Andrew Lumsden**, **Bette Bourne** and **George Hodson** since *Legendary Children* began its journey. We won’t see their like again – and we need them again now, the pushback from the Right is terrifying and gaining.”
