HOMØE - Looking for Shelter
Following the lives of LGBTQ refugees seeking asylum in Germany, this is an experience of the asylum procedure from the inside, focussing on the personal stories of those who come up against it. Among those stories, we have Javid from Azerbaijan, who starts a campaign for awareness of LGBTQ rights in refugee camps. We also meet Boris from Russia, who has moved into the first shelter for LGBTQ refugees escaping massive anti-gay propaganda and violence. Humanising, powerful, and important.
