Documentary: Out of Annapolis

This is film way overdue:

Of over 200 known gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender US Naval Academy Alumni, more than 120 have "come out" as the LGBT alumni of the US Naval Academy. Many other LGBT alumni remain "in the closet," serving in silence while on active duty in the service of their country as officers in the US Navy and US Marine Corps.

This film will explore the lives of many of these alumni, how the US Naval Academy shaped their character, their enduring strong bond to the Academy and share their experiences while at Annapolis and while serving in the naval service as an LGBT officer, both pre- and post- Don't-Ask-Don't-Tell.

Here's the trailer:

And so it goes.

  2. Who knows at this point? If they get good backing - a probable release. If not, likely to make the festival circuit.
    We'll have to wait and see. Keep tabs on the progress and find out if they are looking for donations or small investors for the film.
    Thanks for the visit.
