Vice.com's critically acclaimed series returns to chronicle the extraordinary lives of Jamaica’s LGBTQI community who have found freedom and acceptance in the sewers of Kingston.
The new documentary, which comes months after the release of Young and Gay in Putin’s Russia,
investigates Jamaica’s murky history with homophobia. In a country
where the colonial-era Buggery Law, which criminalizes sodomy, still
exists and carries a ten-year prison sentence, VICE News explores how
young trans girls and gay men are leading the fight against Jamaica’s
institutionalized homophobia through visibility, fierce community
spirit, and an outspoken attitude towards their position in society.
