Before the screening\, Zagovornik načela enakosti will also organise a roundtable discussion on access to MAR and the rights of LGBTIQ+ people in the process of building a family. \nThe film follows Céline\, who is expecting her first child\, although she is not the one carrying the baby. In three months\, her wife Nadia will give birth to their daughter. In her feature debut\, writer and director Alice Douard explores the experiences of queer people in the aftermath of the legalisation of same-sex marriage in France through an intimate and personal story. \nSet in 2014\, the film follows newly married Parisian couple Céline and Nadia Steyer as they navigate the complicated process of in vitro fertilisation\, which at the time was still not legally accessible to lesbian couples in France\, alongside the bureaucratic procedures of second-parent adoption. Through a deeply personal narrative\, the film opens questions of parenthood\, social recognition\, legislation and the everyday experiences of LGBTIQ+ people. \n🎬 Film trailer:\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Accessibility\n Coming Soon URL:https://ljubljanapridefestival.org/en/dogodki/proof-of-love-des-preuves-damour/ LOCATION:Slovenska Kinoteka\, Miklošičeva cesta 28\, Ljubljana\, Slovenia CATEGORIES:Movie ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://ljubljanapridefestival.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/dokazi-ljubezni.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Ljubljana:20260609T180000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Ljubljana:20260609T200000 DTSTAMP:20260609T100417Z CREATED:20260430T114526Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260609T100417Z UID:4348-1781028000-1781035200@ljubljanapridefestival.org SUMMARY:Sandbag Dam DESCRIPTION:When emotions rise\, nothing can hold them back. \nAs part of the Ljubljana Pride Festival\, join us for a powerful screening: \nIn a rural community where acceptance is limited\, Marko and Slaven — childhood friends and first forbidden love — meet again.

Over the past six years\, hundreds of filmmakers have shown their solidarity in response to the boycott call from queer and trans Palestinians. \nIsrael continues to attempt to instrumentalise LGBTIQ+ identities to justify its genocide against Palestinians\, including by murdering\, blackmailing and imprisoning queer and trans Palestinians. The Israeli government actively promotes a pinkwashing agenda designed to portray itself in a positive light because it offers some rights to some members of the LGBTQIA+ community\, while distracting attention from the daily reality of its military occupation\, apartheid\, settler colonialism and violent racism against Palestinians.

Artificial intelligence systems\, often perceived as neutral\, reflect discriminatory patterns present in the data they are trained on. \nDuring the workshop\, we will examine how algorithms\, social media moderation tools\, and digital platforms affect the visibility\, safety\, and representation of LGBTIQ+ people. Through concrete examples\, we will address ethical challenges in technology development and explore ways to create a more inclusive digital environment. The workshop will also highlight the role of activism at the intersection of technology and LGBTIQ+ human rights.
