Rainbow Nation background

Rainbow Nation

The film sheds light on the stark contrast between South Africa's constitutional protections for LGBTQIA+ individuals and the distressing prevalence of hate crimes, encompassing brutal attacks, sexual violence, and murders, which disproportionately impact the community.

South Africa, often touted as a queer paradise, is a country where LGBTQIA+ individuals have equal rights and can marry. However, the reality is vastly different. In Johannesburg's townships, queer individuals face daily struggles, risking physical aggression, rape, or murder.
