CGiii Comment

One of the men, Ade, is in the process of applying for Canadian citizenship...on camera, he talks about his crystal meth consumption, let's hope the authorities don't see this film! What a silly thing to do!

These three men have to be considered more fortunate than those who are not able to leave their homophobic country...

This is a film that doesn't ask the questions that many would liked answered, mainly...how did you manage to leave?

Sadly, this film will help no-one...what a wasted opportunity.


No trailer...

The(ir) Blurb...

Three Nigerian men are scattered across the globe after escaping homophobic violence.
