Un evento organizado por Queen que rendía homenaje al recién fallecido Freddie Mercury y que pretendía concienciar sobre el VIH. "Freddie Mercury: el show final" muestra cómo se gestó el concierto a la vez que retrata el momento histórico en el que tuvo lugar.Metallica, Guns N' Roses, David Bowie, Elton John o George Michael son solo algunos de los grupos que acompañaron a Queen en el histórico concierto. Freddie Mercury había muerto 5 meses atrás víctima de sida, una enfermedad que estaba matando a miles de personas y que estaba legitimando la homofobia. Su muerte permitió que se empezase a hablar abiertamente de la homosexualidad y que se dejase de estigmatizar la enfermedad.

La película sigue a Peter mientras se embarca en su cruzada más arriesgada hasta la fecha al tratar de interrumpir la Copa Mundial de la FIFA en Moscú para llamar la atención sobre la persecución de las personas LGBT + en Rusia y Chechenia.

AFTER 82 brings to the screen the untold personal stories of the AIDS crisis in the UK. Narrated by Dominic West, this incredible documentary looks back to the very early days of the pandemic when there were no medications and a positive HIV test meant almost certain death. Many of those featured have never spoken openly to the media about those traumatic early days, and this may be the only time they will do so. The film features interviews with the actor Jonathan Blake (portrayed in the film Pride by Dominic West) who has lived with the virus for over thirty years. This frank and important movie features moving interviews about a desperate time that the world must never forget. It beautifully commemorates those lost to AIDS, it celebrates those who supported people living with the virus and the many who continue to be there for those in need. AFTER 82 is a remarkable testament to human compassion, strength, love and resilience and ensures that those voices will never be forgotten.

Using interviews with close family, friends and collaborators, The Gospel According to St. Derek bears witness to Derek Jarman’s unique approach to low-budget film-making (his near-alchemical ability to turn the base components of film-making in to artistic gold, his placing of himself at the heart of all his work and his need to be part of a repertory company-type set-up). The Gospel… also promotes Derek Jarman’s importance as one of Britain's finest film-makers and acts, therefore, as a rally call to all would-be independent film-makers. This is the ’10 commandments of St. Derek ‘(who was indeed canonised by the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence) on low-budget film-making.
