WAM Film Discussion Series

WAM Film Discussion Series

Presented by World AIDS Museum at World AIDS Museum

Join us for our November Film Discussion Series featuring short clips of the film Philadelphia. Fearing it would compromise his career, lawyer Andrew Beckett hides his homosexuality and HIV status at a powerful Philadelphia law firm. But his secret is exposed when a colleague spots the illness's telltale lesions. Fired shortly afterwards, Beckett resolves to sue for discrimination, teaming up with  the only lawyer willing to help. Several clips will be played and followed by an audience discussion on the ideas and implications of the scenes and the film’s impact. Audience members do not need to have seen the film beforehand to participate in the discussion. This event will be available both in-person and online via Facebook and Zoom.
