PFLAG Night At Circle Cinema








PFLAG Tulsa and Openarms are sponsoring the exciting new documentary, Anyone and Everyone, Monday, June 2, 7:00 p.m. at Circle Theatre, 10 South Lewis Ave, Tulsa, OK.
 
The film tells the stories of families from across the United States who are all connected by having a son or daughter who is gay.  This poignant and often heart wrenching documentary by first time filmmaker Susan Polis Schults reveals families struggles and desires to accept a child's sexual orientation.
 
The film features families from a diverse range of religious and cultural backgrounds such as Japanese, Boliva, Cherokee, Mormon, Jewish , Catholic and Hindu.  These parents share intimate accounts of their experiences when their children reveled to them that they were gay.  While some showed unconditional support, many struggled with their child's sexual orientation, fearing alienation from their extended family, their church or their community.   The driving point of the documentary is that the families featured really could be "anyone and everyone".  The issues in this film do not discriminate, as it shows families with gay children that come from all classes, races and religions, yet all experience similar emotions and struggles.
 
Oklahoma's own Joyce and Calvin Rock, residents of Muskogee, Oklahoma and members of the Cherokee Indian Tribe are among the families sharing their stories.  Joyce and Calvin organized the Muskogee PFLAG Chapter.
 
A panel discussion will follow the presentation.   The movie is free and all are invited to a reception at 6:30 p.m. at the Theatre.
