In the GDR, too, most homosexuals experienced fear and feelings of guilt. Homosexuality had been decriminalized in the GDR since 1968, but it remained a taboo. Many homosexuals found themselves caught in a dramatic conflict between love for their homeland and protest against a state that ignored them. The film tells exciting, surprising stories from the everyday life of a minority in the GDR. A film by Jochen Hick and Andreas Strohfeldt.
