Jerusalem Is Proud to Present (Israel, 2007) March 16, 2009

In the summer of 2006, Jerusalem's Jewish, Muslim and Christian religious leaders came together in a rare moment of agreement, promising to wage an uncompromising battle against an event that they said would "defile the holy city." The event in question was World Pride, a gathering which Jerusalem was planning to host for the first time in history, culminating in a gay pride parade. This documentary explores both sides of the conflict, and reveals the difficulties faced by Jerusalem's LGBT community in their struggle for acceptance and respect.
