Overview
"Montreal's Stonewall! In July 1989, riot police broke up a predominantly gay and lesbian party, assaulting party-goers and arresting eight people. Two days later, club-wielding police brutally attacked a mass demonstration in broad daylight, leaving dozens injured and 48 arrested. We're Here tells the story of communities coming together in the face of police brutality to organize, demonstrate and demand their rights as citizens."
