“The Long Trail Out, a 25-minute documentary
film, appeals to a wide and diverse audience, it works across
generations and has the capacity to change minds and opinions as it
takes the viewer on a very personal journey of coming out.
The struggles faced during a life of hiding, the decision to come out
and the physical challenges faced while climbing mountains make for a
powerful and compelling story. The film’s message will educate both
young and old, gay and straight, on the importance
of being proud of who you are.”
The screening will be followed by remarks from the
documentary subject and East Aurora native Tim Buchanan and Shai
Ben-Dor, the filmmaker and director. The program will conclude with a
coming out panel of students, faculty and staff,
and a reception in the Center for the Arts Atrium.
The event is open to the community and is
co-sponsored by the Intercultural and Diversity Center and the Office of
Inclusive Excellence.
