Global Gay

Description

Whether it be regarding legalization in the Middle-East and Africa or the focus of gay marriage laws in the West, after years of long diplomatic struggle, several world leaders have declared themselves in favor of the universal decriminalization of homosexuality. But victory won't come easily. The countries that still punish homosexuality refuse to give in to international pressure. This film follows this battle for decriminalization through the lives and work of some of its fearless pioneers. Filmed in Russia, Cuba, Cameroon, Nepal and South Africa. Homosexuality is forbidden in almost half of the world and a global revolution is underway to obtain what UN Secretary General Ban Ki Moon and Barack Obama call "the final frontier in human rights": the universal decriminalization of homosexuality.
