Out & Open

The post-Soviet view of the LGBTQ+ topic in society is still hostile. Five young and brave protagonists share their experiences of gender identity and sexual orientation. Andrey and Ilya are a gay couple, Robis feels better as non-binary, Vincent is a trans guy, Danute and Sandy have been in a relationship for five years, Konstance feels better as a woman than man. We often are used to LGBTQ+ characters portrayed as activists or victims but gender is not a job and being different is not a choice. Our protagonists share their lives to show us that they are people with various interests, full of energy and life.
