CGiii Comment

Comparing a Gay Pride march with a policeman's parade...it's a little embarrassing!

As for that hideous noise at the beginning...well, let's just say it's not the greatest short film ever made. But...it is - most definitely - a film that backfired...in the wrong direction!


No trailer...

Summer 1999, in the center of Vienna: two very distinct parades took place simultaneously on the same street. One was a policemen's parade; the other a celebration of gay pride. Because the policemen didn't want to march hand in hand with the Gay Movement, a typical Austrain solution was found: while the gays marched clockwise, the policemen marched counter-clockwise.
