January 13, 201214 yr Active Members The Nation, the Bangkok newspaper that has been at my door these last few days, has two articles on gay subjects today in its entertainment section. One is about gay marriage, and is titled Brave Hearts in Trang, the other is about a gay movie being shown in Vietnam, an apparently historic event. My guess is that many here would be interested in both articles, but it is the one about Vietnam I found most interesting as their attitudes on gay subjects seem quite behind the times. One viewer of the film says that he cannot be openly gay as it would do "unimaginable damage" to his family. So, being still a learner on the Ipad, I can't make a link for you. But the website is nationmultimedia.com. The first article is titled "Brave Hearts in Trang" and the second is titled "Paradise Lost and found." I was unable to find the second article online, so maybe someone else could do so. The article was picked up from Agency France-Press, if that helps.

My search skills continue to fail me in finding the article, but here is a similar one along with the trailer. The movie is available on DVD. Lost in Paradise One of the movie's stars is Hồ Vĩnh Khoa, shown here:
