A cinema has canceled a non-profit’s scheduled premiere of its film about people who have voluntarily changed their homosexual behavior and are silenced for speaking about it.

Core Issues Trust, a Christian group that helps people who experience unwanted same-sex attraction, had arranged for Voices of the Silenced: Experts, Evidences and Ideologies to be screened at the Vue Cinema at London’s Piccadilly Circus on Thursday at 7:00 p.m.

The cinema sent Dr. Michael Davidson, the head of Core Issues Trust, an email today telling him the theater “will not be able to fulfil the final terms of the agreement” because they have “the right to refrain from providing screening services up to the point of any pre-booked screening.”

“This is a very important film raising public awareness about difficult issues faced by a whole category of vulnerable people, and we are very disappointed that the screening has been cancelled at the last moment,” said Davidson.
