Every June, we celebrate Pride Month to honor the LGBTQ+ community, historic figures who fought for their rights, and the continuing effort to protect queer individuals around the world. For many, this time of year reminds us that not 20 years ago, open queer representation was few in far between. And while there is still work to be done, LGBTQ+ and gender non-conforming individuals are slowly becoming a part of mainstream film and TV to share their stories with a wider audience. This Pride Month, join L’OFFICIEL in uplifting the queer community, beginning with a look at some of the best LGBTQ+ movies and TV shows to add to your June watch list.
