Take Me to Prom
Take Me to Prom is a Canadian documentary film, directed by Andrew Moir and released in 2019. 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.
The film premiered at the 2019 Hot Docs Canadian International Documentary Festival. It was subsequently added to the CBC Gem streaming platform.
The film won the Canadian Screen Award for Best Short Documentary at the 8th Canadian Screen Awards in 2020.
The film was co-commissioned by CBC and the British documentary film channel Real Stories.
