| Summary |
Young gay people in the UK are increasingly discovering the self-awareness and confidence to come out while still in school. In recent years there has been a revolution in social acceptance, but coming out while still a teen is always fraught with difficulties and potential danger. This documentary follows five British teenagers as they come out, capturing intimate first-hand experiences, empathising with them as they seek acceptance for their sexuality. From the 14-year-old footballer who describes herself as a 'butch lesbian' to the transgender boy forced out of home and school, the programme features a cross-section of characters. Intimate, confessional and raw, Teenage and Gay celebrates their bravery, and exposes the ostracism and bullying they can suffer. NB. The UK TX version is called Underage and Gay |
