Mentally ill. Deviant. Diseased. And in need of a cure. These were among the terms psychiatrists used to describe lesbians and gay men in the 1950s, 1960s, and early 1970s. According to the medical establishment, every gay person—no matter how well-adjusted—suffered from a mental disorder. And as long as lesbians and gay men were “sick,” progress toward equality was impossible. CURED chronicles the battle waged by a small group of activists who declared war against a formidable institution—and won a crucial victory in the modern movement for LGBTQ equality.

Mentalno bolestan. Devijantan. Oboleo. I potrebno je lečenje. Ovo su bili neki od termina koje su psihijatri koristili da opisuju lezbejke i gej muškarce 1950-ih, 1960-ih i ranih 1970-ih. Prema medicinskim ustanovama, svaka gej osoba — ma koliko bila dobro prilagođena — patila je od mentalnog poremećaja. I sve dok su lezbejke i gej muškarci bili „bolesni“, napredak ka jednakosti je bio nemoguć. Izlečen beleži bitku koju je vodila mala grupa aktivista koji su objavili rat strašnoj instituciji—i izvojevali ključnu pobedu u modernom pokretu za LGBTQ ravnopravnost.
