When cheerleader Megan’s friends and family start to notice her homosexual tendencies, they send her away to a brightly coloured conversion therapy camp – led by Mary Brown (Cathy Moriarty) and Mike (RuPaul). There, she’ll discover love, gay bars, and a sense of her own identity in this coming-of-age satire.

Before the film the Carnegie Aviators will perform a short cheerleading demonstration. After the film, join us for a post-crawl quiz in Kino. Our host, Ellie Hales, is a film curator and programmer who is also known for her quiz mastery at Water Lane Boathouse and Belgrave’s Quiz of the Year.

Leeds Cinema Crawl: Reel Journeys

A journey of truly cinematic proportions

Archive, Cottage Road Cinema, Howard Assembly Room and Hyde Park Picture House come together to offer a unique opportunity for film lovers.

The Leeds Cinema Crawl is a day-long event featuring a screening at each venue. All the films feature a journey of some kind and will be shown consecutively, allowing cinemagoers to travel between each stop, make a detour or two and take part in a few extra activities along the way.

As with any good road trip, the four venues have brought some friends along for the ride – Leeds International Film Festival, Scalarama Leeds and Scour Cinema will all contribute to the crawl.
