Landing - Landing is the story of two men falling in love. Seen through the eyes of each man as they discover what often draws you together can also tear you apart! Will love be enough?
62-84 I Didn't Copy That HQ - Lives that getting united and getting threatened in a night…a woman who is running away because she was subjected to domestic violence by her husband, a trans person trying to hold on to life by cooking, and an illegal immigrant who is at the edge of suicide.
The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert - When drag queen Anthony (Hugo Weaving) agrees to take his act on the road, he invites fellow performers Adam (Guy Pearce) and Bernadette (Terence Stamp) to come along. In their colourful bus, named Priscilla, the three performers travel across the Australian desert performing for enthusiastic crowds and homophobic locals. But when the other two performers learn the truth about why Anthony took the job, it threatens their act and their friendship.
This event was made possible by the Government of Canada through the Department of Canadian Heritage "Building Communities Through Arts and Heritage - Local Festivals" grant, and by the Orillia Soldiers Memorial Hospital LGBTQ Committee.
