Among Men - Gay in East Germany

How did gay men live and love under the socialist dictatorship of East Germany? In the first documentary on this topic, six men tell the young director what it would have been like if he had been born just a few years or a few decades earlier. Their perspectives are as individual as their life stories: an East German punk, a gay activist from the church, a free-thinking artist, a closeted gay teacher, an emigrant from Chile and a craftsman from the country all prove one thing: in East Germany, everyone was not the same after all.

A moving documentary about sexual freedom in a totalitarian system.
