Agenda 23 - 29 Maart 2014

Screening of the Cameroonian film 'Born This Way' in cooperation with Movies that Matter and in the presence of the director and activist Yves Yomb. Like everywhere else in the world, gays and lesbians in Cameroon seek refuge in the city. The two young gay men in this film are crazy about Rihanna and Lady Gaga, who has been a gay icon since her hit song ‘Born This Way’. But the tolerance Lady Gaga sings about is just a dream for them. In their country, homosexual relations are subject to punishments of up to five years in prison, and it is almost impossible to come out even to your own family. Please register.
