CGiii Comment

Born in 1931, Teishiro Minami launched Japan’s first commercial gay magazine, coordinated a queer helpline and organised the nation’s first Pride parade in 1994. Minami and friends reflect on the complicated relationships and inter-community clashes that paved the way for today’s movement. Comprising a rich trove of archive footage and vibrant animation, Hiroaki Matsuoka’s documentary honours Minami’s legacy.
