Rebel Dykes, GFT

26 November until 2 December, 2021

Glasgow Film Theatre, 12 Rose Street, G3 6RB

Brilliant and refreshing story of UK post-punk lesbian culture, told by those who lived it. Rebel Dykes follows a tight-knit group of friends who met at Greenham Common peace camp and went on to become artists, performers, musicians and activists in London.

A heady mash-up of animation, archive footage and interviews tells the story of a radical scene: squatters, BDSM nightclubs, anti-Thatcher rallies, protests demanding action around AIDS, and the fierce ties of chosen family. This is an extraordinarily privileged glimpse into a bygone world by those who not only lived out their politics with heartfelt conviction, but lived to tell the tale.

These screenings are supported by Reclaim the Frame.
