Take Me to Prom is a Canadian documentary film, directed by Andrew Moir and released in 2019.[1] The film traces the evolution of LGBTQ acceptance in society by asking a multigenerational selection of LGBTQ people to recount a story from their high school prom; storytellers in the film most notably include Marc Hall, whose 2002 court case Hall v Durham Catholic School Board, over his school's refusal to allow him to bring a same-sex date to his prom, became a landmark LGBT rights case in Canada.[1]
The film premiered at the 2019 Hot Docs Canadian International Documentary Festival.[2] It was subsequently added to the CBC Gem streaming platform.[1]
The film won the Canadian Screen Award for Best Short Documentary at the 8th Canadian Screen Awards in 2020.[3]
The film was co-commissioned by CBC and the British documentary film channel Real Stories (owned by Little Dot Studios). [4]
