- Synopsis:
- David Kato, Uganda's first openly gay man, is one of few who dare to publicly protest state-sanctioned homophobia in the country. But David's formidable task just became much more difficult. A new "Anti-Homosexuality Bill" proposes death for HIV-positive gay men, and prison for anyone who fails to turn in a known homosexual, whilst newspapers have begun outing people with vicious fervour.
Working with an idiosyncratic clan of fellow activists, David fights Uganda's government and tabloids in the courts, on television, and at the United Nations. Because, he insists, "if we keep on hiding, they will say we're not here". - Actors:
