Gen Silent, giving a voice to LGBTQ Older AdultsGen Silent is the LGBT documentary from award-winning director and filmmaker Stu Maddux that asks six LGBT seniors if they will hide their lives to survive. Their surprising decisions are captured through intimate access to their day-to-day lives over the course of a year in Boston, Massachusetts.

Gen Silent brings these issues into the open for the first time. The film shows the wide range in quality of paid caregivers – from those who are specificially trained to make LGBT seniors feel safe, to the other end of the spectrum, where LGBT elders face discrimination neglect or abuse.
