Forbidden Love

Forbidden Love 1990

1

A documentary look at homosexuality in Czechoslovakia, a country just beginning to understand that an estimated 750,000 of its citizens are gay and lesbian. Through incredibly honest interviews with gays, gay right leaders and blatant homophobes, the director has created a film that captures the innocence of an incipient social movement as well as a chilling look at the culture they are up against.
