null - We Will Become Better

In July 2020, Vladimir Putin changed the Russian constitution to ban same-sex marriage with an amendment that explicitly defines marriage as between a man and woman. It has encouraged a wave of hate crimes including beatings, rape and torture that continue to this day.

One year on from the constitutional change, we released a film to challenge these offensive portrayals of same-sex relationship with a simple message: ‘Love is everyone’s right’.

This is the first Russian LGBTQIA+ film in years that actually portrays a gay relationship and the country’s first anti-homophobic project.

We collaborated with the most talented and openhearted creative minds all over the world to manifest a universal human right to love. Loving fearlessly and freely is a privilege that is outrageously unavailable to the members of Russian LGBT+ community.
