Gay and hidden

Louie is a gay Palestinian who has lived in Tel Aviv for 10 years as an “invisible man.” He has no bank account, no passport, and he’s constantly on the run. He came to Tel Aviv after he was outed and threatened with violence while living in his community in the Palestinian territories. In the documentary “The Invisible Men,” being shown at the San Francisco International LGBT Film Festival, Louie and others in his situation must decide whether to flee to Europe and be free, or stay in the only land they know.
