La Peur tue l’amour

Five people tell about their personal stories and their homosexuality. These are tales of self-discovery, sensuality, fear, recognition, sexuality, difference, love... One remembers her first teenager sensual emotions, another relates his initial difficulty to recognise himself as homosexual, another one tells about his happiness to find out about his sexual orientation thanks to a deep and long-lasting love. They all recollect the reactions provoked by the disclosure of their homosexuality to their family: from incomprehension to anger, shame or feinted indifference, each of them went through a unique experience.
