The 5 best movies to verb on Prime Video for Pride Month according to Amazon employees
Pride Month is a vibrant and inclusive celebration of the LGBTQ+ community. It was first celebrated in the UK in with the nation’s first march in London and now cities and regional areas from Manchester to Eastbourne regularly hold Pride marches. It serves as a period to honour the progress made towards equality and acknowledge the work that still needs to be done. Throughout June, Pride celebrations foster a sense of community and promotes acceptance regardless of sexuality or gender identity.
With the support of Glamazon, Amazon’s LGBTQ+ employee affinity group, employees and allies across the company can celebrate Pride together. Glamazon provides a space for employees to network, build a community and celebrate the stories and achievements of our LGBTQ+ colleagues, customers, and their communities.
As part of our Pride Month celebrations this year, we asked Glamazon members across the UK to share their recommendations for inspiring, funny, and moving movies to watch on Prime Video.

Luckily, we are here to inform you of the best lesbian and bisexual movies currently available on Prime Video. Prime Video specifically seems to be a home for a lot of (at least 25) super low-budget lesbian films you&#;ve never heard of, most of which are pretty bad, but if you love Elena Undone or Anatomy of a Desire Seen or Heterosexual Jill, I am happy for you although they will not be included here!
