This is a bootlegged copy of a UK documentary “Hunted” about violence and persecution of LGBT people in Russia. It is likely to go down soon, so watch and share it now.

YouTube About:
On the eve of the Sochi Winter Olympics, Russia is officially welcoming gay athletes and spectators. But in a country where it’s thought only 1% of gay people dare to live completely openly, it appears to be a hollow gesture.

This extraordinary Dispatches documentary has gained unique access to the vigilante gangs that target gay men and women. The film depicts a country troubled by disturbing violence and distressing intimidation.

Six months after the Russian parliament unanimously passed a law to protect children from ‘non-traditional’ relationships, this film explores the terror that gay people in Russia are calling 'hunting season’.

After taking over McDonald’s “Cheers To Sochi” social media campaign on Twitter last month, LGBT activists are continuing their push to demand official sponsors of the Sochi Games to denounce Russia’s anti-LGBT laws with the launch of a parody website, CheerstoSochi.org.

McDonald’s asked customers to use the #CheersToSochi hashtag on Twitter Jan. 21 to send messages of support to olympians competing in the games, and openedCheersToSochi.com (the URL now redirects to aboutmcdonalds.com) as a hub for “sending cheers.” But within days, LGBT activists and other critics swarmed the hashtag, using it to demand official Olympic sponsors, such as McDonald’s and Coca-Cola, denounce the host nation’s discriminatory policies.
