Runtime: 75'

This autumn, for the first time, United Nations Cinema is partnering with the British Museum. We're bringing you two unmissable film screenings as part of a new exhibition opening in September, guest curated by the journalist, satirist, writer and broadcaster Ian Hislop, called I, Object.

Following Rory’s journey from the small Mayo town of Ballinrobe to striding the world stage as an icon for LGBT rights, the film takes us behind the scenes with his alter ego Panti in the year she became the symbol of Ireland’s march towards marriage equality. Check out the Facebook event here.

The film will be followed by a panel discussion with Special Guests:

• Rory O'Neill, The star of the Queen of Ireland and creator of Panti Bliss,
• Claude Cahn, Human Rights Adviser, Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR).

The film is in English and has a run time of 75 minutes.
