Drawing inspiration from today’s headlines, the story of The Last Taboo revolves around the hot topic of same-sex marriage, and its impact on the lives of four male couples and their friends. Even though it’s evident from the very start of the video that a marriage has taken place, the script is cleverly constructed in such a way as to keep the viewer guessing which couple it is that finally "takes the plunge."

It’s 2006, YouTube is in its infancy, and internet porn is still behind a paywall. Taking the stage name Brent Corrigan, a fresh-faced, wannabe adult video performer is molded into a star by Stephen, a closeted gay porn mogul who runs the skin flick empire Cobra Video from his seemingly ordinary suburban home.

This searing investigative work shadows a group of activists risking unimaginable peril to confront the ongoing anti-LGBTQ program raging in the repressive and closed Russian republic. Unfettered access and a remarkable approach to protecting anonymity exposes this under-reported atrocity–and an extraordinary group of people confronting evil.
