1978

Synopsis: In the heart of Sydney’s Kings Cross, an event like no other is about to come to life. Little do the people involved know what difference they will make in years to come. We take the journey with a young man living in a housing commission environment about to explore the world and community of his sexuality and fall in love for the first time. We discover 1978 – the birth of Sydney’s famous Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras.
