Open Secrets

Film · Documentaire

This provocative film uncovers a lost chapter in Canadian military history: how the Armed Forces dealt with gay soldiers, during and after World War II. A group of veterans break their silence after more than 60 years: we hear from five men who were barely adults when they enlisted. From the sexual timidity of the 1930s, when being gay “was even more unmentionable than cancer,” spring these stories of sexual awakening amidst the brutality of war.
