Welcome to Chechnya

Welcome to Chechnya
In the repressive and closed state of Russia, a group of activists risk their lives to go against the anti-LGBTQ+ program propagated by the government to cleanse the blood if LGBTQ chechnyas. The campaign includes arresting, torturing and executing LGBTQ individuals.

With no help from the global condemnation of violence, a vast group takes matters into their own hands to oppose Chechnya’s tyrannical leader, Ramzan Kadyrov who has waged this operation since 2016. By keeping the anonymity of the protesters, France is a warrior with a camera who dares to expose atrocities, confronts genocide and ignites change.
