In this event, documentary-style segments chosen from the In the Life Collection will be screened. In the post-screening discussion, John Catania and Charles Ignacio will share personal stories about their own journey in this movement. Brian Leung, long-time advocate and activist for LGBT rights in Hong Kong, will also join the discussion to share his views.
