Around the world there's a loud, proud fight for equality. And in some places significant battles are being won. The right for same-sex partners to marry under law and recognition that gay couples should enjoy the same financial and social benefits as heterosexual couples. In many places there's good reason to celebrate advances but not in Russia.
There the fight is to stay out of jail, or avoid stinging fines for openly identifying as gay. And draconian anti-gay laws are effectively licensing vigilantism as gangs target the LGBT community.
This Foreign Correspondent story was originally broadcast as “The Iron Closet” on 29 October 2013.
