SUMMARY:Interference - campaign closes
DESCRIPTION:1980s New Zealand\, where being gay means hiding in plain sight and local homophobes\, backed by the Far Right churches of Reagan’s America\, are hell bent on destroying any liberal fantasies of change. With money and power behind them\, they wage open warfare on New Zealanders fighting for their right to be different. \nIt was brutal\, it was dangerous\, at times it was funny as hell … and it changed our nation forever. \nThere’s no director in the country who can tell this story with more passion and authenticity. Welby Ings (Punch\, Sparrow\, Boy) knows the story intimately. In the early 80s\, he started his small town’s three person pressure group\, Gay Rights of Taihape. Arrested several times and with his teaching career under threat\, he threw himself into the national campaign\, protesting\, infiltrating and interfering as much as possible with the opposition.
