Stonewall

A young man's political awakening and coming of age during the days and weeks leading up to the Stonewall Riots.

Details

Stonewall is a riveting drama set against the backdrop of the historic Stonewall Riots in 1969, which marked a turning point in the fight for gay rights. The story follows Danny Winters, a young man who escapes his oppressive hometown and journeys to New York City, leaving behind his sister. Upon arriving in the city, Danny finds refuge at the infamous Stonewall Inn, a gathering place for the LGBTQ+ community.

At the Stonewall Inn, Danny meets Trevor, a charismatic and compassionate young man, and catches the attention of Ed Murphy, the manager of the bar. However, things take a dark turn as the film uncovers the colluding between corrupt police officers and Murphy, who exploit and target the vulnerable homeless youth who frequent the bar.

As tensions rise within the community and police brutality reaches its peak, Danny finds himself at the heart of the revolution. The film unravels the events that led to the explosive Stonewall Riots, where LGBTQ+ individuals fought back against the systemic oppression they faced.

Stonewall is a powerful and emotionally-charged film that explores the struggles and triumphs of the LGBTQ+ community during a time of immense adversity. It sheds light on the heroes and heroines who paved the way for the equality and acceptance we enjoy today.
