The first half of the sixth and final season of grown-ish will premiere on Freeform on June 26.

Eldorado - June 28

Berlin's Eldorado nightclub in the late 1920s was iconic. It was a significant part of Berlin's queer scene and was an establishment that built Berlin's diverse nightlife. Gays, lesbians, and trans folks danced with the likes of Marlene Dietrich and Charles Chaplin. The club even saw Nazi officials attend and hang with the guests. However, the club became a target of Nazi oppression and it was forced to close in 1932.

"The world’s first visibly queer community was destroyed by the Nazis in just a few years. Many who had just learned about a new freedom were suddenly persecuted and murdered," a Netflix description reads.

The documentary, which premieres (in English) on June 28, delves into the club's history and the fate of LGBTQ+ people between the world wars. Historical recreations, interviews, and archival footage are used to bring viewers closer to the experience that was Eldorado.

The Witcher ­­– June 29

In December 2019, Netflix premiered The Witcher, a fantasy series based on a book series of the same name. According to interviews with the show’s executive producer and showrunner, when the show returns for its third season, it will include a queer character named Philippa Eilhart, who is also part of the books. The first volume of the third season of The Witcher will premiere on Netflix on June 29.

Every Body ­– June 30

Intersex people are not often featured in television and film, and even when they are, they are often depicted through problematic stereotypes. But later this month, Focus Features will release a documentary film about intersex people called Every Body, from Academy Award nominated and Emmy-winning filmmaker Julie Cohen (RBG). Every Body will be released in theaters on June 30.

Nimona – June 30
