What's happened to oral history? What was it like being queer in Vancouver in the
50s? the 60s? the 70s? Where did people hang out What did they fight for? What do
they miss? Armed with curiosity and a cameraman, writer/storyteller Ivan E. Coyote
and musician Veda Hille set out to talk to the people who were there. Stories of the
Vanport, the International Women's Conference, communal life in the West End and the
Castel Kiss-In all come together to make a picture of our city in the middle of the
last century.
