5. LUX NEWS

NEW LUX ONLINE EXHIBITIONS
New temporary exhibitions of full artists’ films from LUX.

September/ October 2007
Pedagogue (1988), Stuart Marshall with Neil Bartlett
Marshall’s witty riposte to the Conservative Government's Section 28  
(a Local Government Act passed in 1988 to stop the expenditure of  
public money by local authorities to "promote homosexuality") by  
systematically trivializing and ridiculing its rulings. It also  
deconstructs the two establishment myths that homosexuality can be  
"taught" and is "infectious".

NEW ON LUXONLINE
