Gay Seniors Documentary ‘Before You Know It’ Seeks Kickstarter Funding

The ‘Before You Know It’ documentary takes a look into the fascinating lives of a group of gay senior citizens in the US.

The film has completed production and now its producers have launched a Kickstarter campaign to bring it to cinemas.

‘Before You Know It’ is a feature-length documentary that examines the lives and experiences of three elderly members of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community and their place within the larger spectrum of LGBT identities. Their Kickstarter campaign states…

“The subjects of Before You Know It are no ordinary senior citizens. They are go-go booted bar-hoppers, love struck activists, troublemaking baton twirlers, late night Internet cruisers, seasoned renegades and bold adventurers. They are also among the estimated 2.4 million lesbian, gay and bisexual Americans over the age of 55 in the United States, many of whom face heightened levels of discrimination, neglect and exclusion.”

With the help of a kickstarter campaign which aims to raise $50,000, PJ Raval and the ‘Before You Know It’ production team, want to bring their film to cinemas in order to bring visibility to…

“a film about generational trailblazers who have surmounted prejudice and defied expectation to form communities of strength, renewal and camaraderie –- whether these communities be affable senior living facilities, lively activist enclaves or wacky queer bars brimming with glittered trinkets and colorful drag queens.”
