A stunning profile of how the world’s gay refugees are fleeing discrimination, persecution and murder from the native lands in search of freedom and human rights. Powerful stories fuel international dialogue told by five young men as they search for welcoming arms outside their countries of birth where prosecution and hatred of alternative lifestyles may lead to torture or death.
Winner of the Golden Ribbon Award - Canadian Broadcast Association as the best documentary of the year in the Public Affairs Category
Audience Choice – Commonwealth Film Festival
