How One Man Came To Terms With Being Gay In Singapore's Military

More than five years since President Barack Obama repealed "don't ask, don't tell," identifying as gay or lesbian in the U.S. military is no longer widely viewed as the taboo it once was.

Unfortunately, as a harrowing short film shows, that isn't the case in many other countries around the world. Inspired by a true story, "Purple Light” follows the story of how a Singaporean gay man came to terms with his sexuality in the military.

Don't miss the trailer for "Purple Light" above, then head to Viddsee, an Asian company that curates and shares powerful short films, to watch the complete short.
