Brisbane boasts a vibrant LGBTQ+ community that often finds itself sidelined when it comes to enjoying international cinema releases. On June 12, our friends in the United States were treated to "Stop! That! Train!", a joyful and high-budget camp comedy featuring cherished Drag Race alumni. Here in Brisbane, however, we are still waiting.

This film is more than just entertainment; it's something that brings queer joy into mainstream cinemas and offers representation that extends beyond niche festival circuits. It is imperative that we, as a community, have access to films that reflect our stories and experiences and celebrate our diversity. A film as lively and significant as "Stop! That! Train!" deserves to be seen by Brisbane audiences who yearn for fun theatrical experiences that align with their identities and culture.

By bringing this movie to cinemas across Brisbane, we ensure that LGBTQ+ narratives receive the visibility they deserve in accessible, mainstream venues. We encourage all film lovers and allies in Brisbane to join us in advocating for this important cause.

Please join me in signing this petition to urge cinemas like Event Cinemas, Dendy Cinemas, and Hoyts to include "Stop! That! Train!" in their line-ups. Your signature represents a call for inclusive and diverse cinema options that reflect the wonderful diversity of our city and ensure that no community is an afterthought.
