Paris, 1971. Carole Roussopoulos films the first French gay and lesbian demonstration - with banners like "faggots in the streets!" - within the traditional 1st of May Union demonstration (where they were not invited) to denounce the oppression and homophobia of French institutions and French people. She chooses to edit these images with a discussion - often very personal - which took place a few weeks later at Vincennes University during a philosophy class of the French philosopher Georges Lapassade. Among the activist men and women from the recently created "Front Homosexuel d’Action Révolutionnaire" (The Homosexual Front for Revolutionary Action - F.H.A.R.), we find lesbian feminist Anne-Marie Fauret and Guy Hocquenghem. They reflect on their desires as well as their will to start to politicise the private ("politiser le privé"), the same way the feminists were doing it. They aim to break down the prejudices and raise awareness on a social taboo - all struggles that are still on going in France but as well as in Romania. (by Vanina Vignal)
