CGiii Comment
David Akinsanya doesn't want to be gay anymore - he doesn't believe he was born gay.
So, off he pops to the USA to attend 'freedom from homosexuality through the power of Jesus Christ'.
This documentary is an appalling insult to every gay man - from the unnecessary gay history through aversion therapy to his pitiful emotion.
Akinsanya is simply a simpleton - who is almost permanently and petulantly self-absorbed.
Hugely offensive and a man who is simply courting sympathy and a disturbing need to be on TV.
Exaggerated, pure vanity.
No trailer...

Documentary following David Akinsanya as he attends a controversial treatment center in America that promises 'freedom from homosexuality through the power of Jesus Christ'. David has been living as a gay man for 20 years, but if he could take a pill to make him heterosexual he'd pop it without a second thought. He believes his homosexuality is learned behavior but will it be something he can unlearn?
