Smithsonian Time Capsule:
Beyond Stonewall
1 x 60’, 2020, 4K
The Stonewall riots sparked a new attitude and activism around LGBTQ rights. Fifty years later, revisit the historic moment that began a movement and explore objects from the Smithsonian Institution that tell stories of the gay experience in America. Examine a donation can from America’s first gay pride march, Matthew Shepard’s personal belongings, and notes written to Gene Robinson, the first openly gay bishop in the Episcopal Church. Includes footage from Lilli Vincenz’s films “Gay and Proud” and “The Second Largest Minority.”
Who knew that the Smithsonian was a repository for so much that is gross, icky and weird? We take a look at ten wondrous and unusual artefacts drawn from the Smithsonian’s collections. These include Soap Man, a man mummified in soap; the world’s longest tapeworm, a giant squid and a million-year-old sample of giant sloth dung.

Enter the chilling world of anti-civil rights espionage. We reveal in shocking detail the State of Mississippi’s effort to undermine the civil rights movement using a vast network of spies. Their identities will shock you. Whites and Blacks spied for Old Dixie and the Sovereignty Commission and would stop at nothing, even murder, to retain the “Mississippi way of life”.
Trilogy Films for Smithsonian Networks
This film brings together the highest-ranking POWs from the infamous ‘Hanoi Hilton’ prison camp to reveal harrowing tales of torture, interrogation and brutal treatment. In the midst of this hellish experience, a handful of POWs created a clandestine movement that eventually led to rescue attempts and a spy ring whose top secret connections can only now be revealed.
