The Coming Back Out Ball

If you’re out of the closet, you’re out of the CLOSETS!

The Coming Back Out Ball is an observational feature documentary that follows a group of older LGBTI+ people, who have been invited to attend a Ball celebrating their gender and sexual identity. Faced with the complexities of ageing and isolation, these extraordinary people seize each day with determination and humour. In a world that is rapidly changing for the LGBTI+ community globally, we witness some of our cast experiencing acceptance and love for the very ﬁrst time in their lives.
