Sun 28 Feb, 5:30pm - 1in12 Club, Bradford

To highlight LGBT History Month, we bring you this outstanding human rights documentary about incarcerated transgender women forced to live in US male prisons, and the abuse and refusal of treatment they face.

“At a time when torture has haltingly become part of the national conversation, 'Cruel and Unusual' draws emotionally devastating attention to victims of violence who are persecuted for their stubborn visibility within the penal system - but remain invisible to an indifferent world outside."
