Stonewall Trailer

Danny Winters is a young man in 1969, who becomes disenfranchised from the marginalisation and discrimination of some members of society. His radical opinions cause his parents to kick him out of their Kansas home, and so he takes the opportunity to travel to New York where he meets a group of liberal and flamboyant youths who shelter him and bring him to a discreet gay club run by the mafia known as The Stonewall Inn. Unfortunately, this is a place frequently raided by cops, who are less than liberal in their way of thinking. Tired of the constant social threats and alienation, Danny leads an army with members of the gay, trans and cross-dressing community to fight against the corrupt police with a full scale riot.

With Gay Pride being a major theme this summer, with all the buzz surrounding 'out' celebrities and revolutionary political movements of equality in the US, 'Stonewall' takes us back to the beginning of it all with a true story drama based on the real Stonewall Riots and LGBT rights in the 60s. Directed by Roland Emmerich ('The Day After Tomorrow', '2012', 'Independence Day') and written by Jon Robin Baitz ('Brothers & Sisters', 'The Substance of Fire', 'People I Know'), the movie is scheduled to be released in US theaters on September 25th 2015.
