“There’s queers in every county, homosexuals in the every hamlet, gays in every gable. And tonight you’ll be talking to some of them.”
As the 70’s rage on, the telephone rings…
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 1970s 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 deeply into the struggle for survival our queer communities faced on a daily basis.
