KyivPride 2022: For Ukraine! For victory!

A sign of solidarity! 120,000 people marched for Ukraine at the Pride in Warsaw in June; Ukrainian LGBTIQ* led the columns. In a joint protest WarsawPride shared the streets with KyivPride.

The twelve-minute documentary “KyivPride2022: For Ukraine! For Victory!” reports on this “Kyiv” Pride, which could not take place in Ukraine this year due to the war and found a new home in Poland.

In an interview with Alex Belopolsky, freelance journalist and member of Munich Kyiv Queer, Lenny Emson, director of KyivPride, talks about a Pride in the middle of a war, the fears and concerns of the LGBTIQ* community in Ukraine, but also the hopes for equal rights and acceptance that they associate with a possible victory over the aggressor.
