During the special Pride edition of Rooftop Cinema (running from July the 31st till August the 6th) the movie programme is curated by Kriterion. Kriterion is a unique movie theater in Amsterdam East that is run exclusively by students (and a cat). Ever since the theater was founded in the 1940s, by former members of the resistance, Kriterion has been providing the city with a cutting-edge cinema programme. For this occasion they handpicked a very eclectic selection of queer movies. So don’t hesitate: grab a ticket, lift off to the seventh floor of Volkshotel, get a bite and a cocktail, and enjoy one of the movie screenings 🌞

Anne (a terrific Vanessa Paradis), a cut-rate gay-porn director in 1979 Paris, is still reeling (and self-medicating) after a breakup with her lover and film editor, Loïs, when performers in her latest film start falling prey to a screeching, leather-mask-clad killer whose weapon of choice is a switchblade hidden in a dildo. As the body count climbs, Anne becomes ever more determined that the show must go on.
