Tags: Uganda

LGBT’s in Uganda suffer from a coalition of religious leaders against homosexuality. The documentary 'Victor and Georgina' by Amakula shows the life and work of two transgender activists in that country. Their portrait demonstrates the difficulties for homosexuals in the Ugandan society, ranging from verbal and physical abuse to prosecution.

The film was screened during a conference 'Towards an International Rainbow Coalition' organised by Hivos and COC Haaglanden.
