Despite often being deemed the most liberal society in the Middle East, Lebanese law still condemns and criminalizes homosexuals, often arbitrarily arresting and abusing innocent civilians. This documentary features interviews with gay citizens who have suffered rejection from their families and been ignored by the law. It features an interview with oneof the founders of Lebanon's first LGBT rights organization, Helem.
