WELCOME TO CHECHNYA
In Chechnya, there are no homosexuals. That is what the tyrannical leader Ramzan Kadyrov has decided. Here we follow a group of activists who risk their lives to save LGBTQ + people who are threatened, detained, tortured and executed. The characters in the film have had their faces digitally altered to remain anonymous.
Through interviews and smuggled video testimony, David France’s documentary shines a light on the dangerous, state-abetted homophobia driving queer men and women out of the Chechen Republic.
CERTIFICATE: There is no certification however we advise people to be 16+ who attend.
The film includes strong language, real-life footage of violent crimes, including M**der and violent sexual scenes.
Also check out other Entertainment events in Wallsend, Festivals in Wallsend.
