Directed by Anne Lescot and Laurence Magloire (2002), 52 minutes. Haitian Creole with English subtitles. A frank look at a largely unexplored area, "Of Men And Gods" examines the daily existence of several Haitian men who are openly gay. Prevalent, yet still taboo, homosexuality and gay culture are allowed to flourish within the context of Haiti's Vodou religion.
