CBC doc on gay rights in Iran


It looks like President Nut Job is wrong again (why is it only the nut bar extremists like Bush and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad get to have the title President lately)?

CBC.ca: He is followed by secret police. His friends are routinely whipped. Some are executed. His name is Mani Zaniar and he is the leader of Iran’s secret gay rights movement.

It is the most dangerous civil rights movement in the world. And for the first time ever, Mani, and many others, have risked their lives to come on camera and tell their story.

In this startling and unique documentary, Out in Iran, we go to Iran and get the world’s first look at life inside Iran’s persecuted gay community. We meet an astonishing group of courageous people with heartbreaking stories.
