Between a Frock and a Hard Place is a Jungleboys documentary that will screen tonight at 8.30pm on ABC1. 
 
The 1980s in Australia was a time of deep, dark closets, the beginning of the AIDS epidemic and widespread homophobia. Homosexuals were vilified.

There were many who were thrown off the cliffs of Bondi by gay-hate gangs (crimes that remain unsolved to this day). Oxford Street became the centre of the world for gay people, celebrating in the face of sadness, fear and desperation.

Between a Frock and a Hard Place tells the story of a film that arrived at this time, one which would redefine homosexual culture, one which was a worldwide game-changer for gay understanding and acceptance.
