During the special Pride edition of Rooftop Cinema (running from July the 31st till August the 6th) the movie programme is curated by Kriterion. Kriterion is a unique movie theater in Amsterdam East that is run exclusively by students (and a cat). Ever since the theater was founded in the 1940s, by former members of the resistance, Kriterion has been providing the city with a cutting-edge cinema programme. For this occasion they handpicked a very eclectic selection of queer movies. So don’t hesitate: grab a ticket, lift off to the seventh floor of Volkshotel, get a bite and a cocktail, and enjoy one of the movie screenings 🌞

Two boys, Ignacio and Enrique, experience love, fear, and abuse in a Catholic boarding school in the 1960s. Father Manolo, the headmaster, is witness to and part of these discoveries. The three meet again many years later, and their past actions and new lives intertwine are interwoven into dazzling effect.
