Film about Tom of Finland to be shown on National Coming Out Day

Author: Hari Alfeo

ZAGREB, Oct 8 (Hina) - The Zagreb Pride NGO and the Finnish Embassy to Croatia will present a film about cult Finnish erotic illustrator Touko Laaksonen, best known by his pseudonym Tom of Finland, on Monday in cooperation with Zagreb's Europa cinema on the occasion of National Coming Out Day, observed worldwide on October 11.

The film about an artist who shaped generations of LGBTIQ persons with his unique art brings an inspiring story about a gay man's struggle in a time of persecution and his journey to fame and a proud life, Zagreb Pride said on Sunday.

National Coming Out Day has been observed since 1988 and was founded by psychologist Robert Eichberg and lesbian activist Jean O'Leary. The date of October 11 was chosen because it is the anniversary of the 1987 National March on Washington for Lesbian and Gay Rights.
