Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender older people who fought the first battles for equality now face so much fear of religious objection, bullying and abuse that many are hiding their identities.

Thousands are dying earlier than their straight counterparts because of added isolation and fear.

Gen Silent is a critically acclaimed documentary about LGBTQ older people going back into the closet to survive an often hostile care system.

Gen Silent is still relevant because these issues haven’t gone away...if you hadn’t made the film, embracing a cultural inclusion simply wouldn’t be happening.
