Join us and event sponsors the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence for a sneak peek at the upcoming documentary ALFREDO’S FIRE. This powerful and timely film chronicles the forgotten story of Alfredo Ormando, a gay Italian writer who set himself on fire at the Vatican to protest the Church’s condemnation of homosexuality. As Pope Benedict XVI abdicates his papacy, the time is ripe for dialogue aimed at building a more open and inclusive Church, so that no more lives are extinguished by religious intolerance.
Help Open Eye Pictures launch its Kickstarter campaign to raise the funds to finish the film in the next few months. Enjoy drinks & noshes and the regalia of the Sisters, who are great supporters of the project.
