Vagabond Cinema is a new project for Milton Keynes, a mobile community cinema bringing a lively programme of films to a range of surprising local venues. You might have caught us showing Buster Keaton’s “Steamboat Bill Jr” at St George’s Church – and on June 20th we’ll be showing “Spirited Away” at Madcap.

We’re aiming for a mix of old favourites, silver screen classics, cutting edge art house, cult rarities, and children’s cinema.  This is a precursor to a longer-term project, THE Electric Picture PalacE, which aims to set up a permanent independent cinema venue in Wolverton, in the old 1911 picture palace building.

We want to know what you would like to see us offer in the way of LGBT programming.

Does your taste run to Rose Troche or John Waters? Sunday Bloody Sunday or Priscilla, Queen of the Desert? World cinema or homegrown?

It was founded by Louis Georges Tin in 2005. Campaigns and Inititives take place on or around May 17th every year to combat prejudice against LGBT people. May 17th is chosen because it marks the anniversary of the day in 1990 when the World Health Organisation removed homosexuality from its list of mental diseases. For more information, click here.

Nearly half of the countries in this world criminally ban homosexuality, with at least five countries punishing people convicted of homosexuality with death.  Speaking out against global homophobia is the only surefire way to combat the violence faced by LGBT people in Iraq, Iran, Senegal, Jamaica, in our own communities, and throughout the world.
