PrEP (Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis) is a new treatment that prevents HIV infection, even without the use of condoms. Is it a 'game-changer' in prevention strategies or an invitation to risky sex? Currently only available to men, 544 people in the UK now have access through the PROUD study, but who will get these pills in the future? And who's going to pay? The medical facts and political controversy will be aired in an open discussion with experts and activists.
Free, just turn up.

18:00 - THE INCOMPLETE
We have been following Jan Soldat's short documentary portraits of the German, gay BDSM community for a few years now, and this longer work is a perfect example of his stark, face-on expositions that are unflinching in their stillness and power, and yet demonstrates such a delicate touch for a tough subject.
In this film we meet Klaus Johannes Wolf (60-year-old, gay, slave) who, without clothes and chained to his bed, discusses the decision to live as a slave, his family, philosophy and what it means to be naked. We accompany him finally to slave camp where, with regimented precision and ruthless efficiency, he undergoes training to become a perfect servant.
