Overview
Pride Prom is a short documentary that follows the story of E Tejada III, the organizer of the first LGBTQ+ Pride Prom at Marquette University. The film weaves together exclusive interviews and footage from event planning and the dance itself, and news coverage of public controversy surrounding the event-- all while exploring the burnout E experiences along the way. In the end, Pride Prom is about the emotional toll of fighting for inclusion at an institution torn between progressive optics and traditional values... and the moments of joy and community that make it all worthwhile.
