Mr. Gay Syria follows two gay Syrian refugees who are trying to rebuild
their lives. Husein is a barber in Istanbul, living a double life
between his conservative family and his gay identity. Mahmoud is the
founder of Syria's LGBTI movement and is a refugee in Berlin. What
brings them together is a dream: to participate in an international
beauty contest as an escape from their trapped lives and an answer to
their invisibility. Will the dream come true or will the refugee crisis
and the harsh consequences of being gay in the Muslim world shatter it
to pieces?
