The blood, sweat and queers behind Pride

EnQueery looks at the history behind Toronto Pride

Production company EnQueery, along with Toronto-notable Matt Barker, had a question: What is Pride all about? Blood, Sweat and Queers is the answer to that question. Looking at Toronto’s gay history and the Pride celebrations of today, Blood, Sweat and Queers is a sleek snapshot of modern LGBT life and the steps that were taken to arrive here.
