The series was filmed in June and July 2022 and features members of the LGBTQ+ community who have experienced persecution and imprisonment for simply existing.

Each story highlights the everyday and diverse experiences that the LGBTQ+ community faces living in Uganda.

The campaign was developed to elevate the voices of some of the most marginalised people in the world. It is hoped that sharing these stories of hardship and resilience will create awareness and empathy that will progress the religious and social inclusion of the LGBTQ+ community in Africa.
