More on Pride on RT Player

A new specially commissioned RT Player exclusive documentary, Kin of Kweens will be available. Kin of Kweens tells the story of the Mockie Ah family, a Cork-based drag family. Through drag they've found each other and themselves. Peeling back the layers, we get to them a little bit more as they take to the road for their next gig.

In addition, our series of popular documentaries on RT Player are:

The Only Gay in the Village
