About
'Callings' follows five queer people who found sanctuary and community on the other end of the phone by seeking solace in Cara-Friend – a befriending service set up in the 1970's to support the many hidden LGBTQ+ individuals across the north of Ireland. Charged with the music of the day, and set amidst a storm of anti-gay headlines, 'Callings' delves deep into the struggle for survival our queer communities faced on a daily basis.
'Callings'poignantly and powerfully expresses how even simple acts of connection can change the course of a life, and how during oppressive times, a gang of bright and brilliant queer people crafted community to save themselves and each other. In an era when the government attempted to quash their right to exist, these moments of connection were an act of resistance and rebellion.
'Someone out there has been plucking up the courage for god knows how long, tonight they'll pick up the phone and you'll be there for them….'
