Exiled for Existing - film screening at Kelvin Hall (National Library of Scotland)
Description
'Exiled for Existing' is a Scottish documentary short produced by over 40 LGBT Refugees to the UK. This is the first film of its kind to tell the stories of those at the intersection of Queer identity and Asylum-Seeking experience.
It features participants recounting their experiences in their home countries, of finding community in Glasgow, and the difficulties they still face in the UK’s asylum system.
The film will be shown and followed by a Q&A with the film-makers.
Meet the filmmakers LIVE, as they donate their film to the National Library of Scotland.
“Why did we come here? Because in our own countries, queer people like me, we have no choice. It’s either jail or death”
