Ten interviews of Siberian gays, lesbians, bisexual and transgender people, based on videotape transcripts of 1990s interviews, first published in the original Russian. The book is named after the Siberian queer film festival that took place in Tomsk in in 1996. Sonja Franeta, the interviewer, writer and translator, traveled extensively throughout Russia, from Khabarovsk to Moscow along the Trans-Siberian Railway, stopping in several Siberian cities to meet LGBTQ people and talk to them about their lives. Interviewees from Novosibirsk, Krasnoyarsk and Tomsk spoke about their experiences as sexual minorities often for the first time. They discussed how they were able to survive the secrecy and stigma of being queer. Men were put in prison camps and women institutionalized in psychiatric institutions during the Stalin years and afterwards. Interviewees also talked about family backgrounds and changes in politics. This is the first book of its kind in Russia, documenting gay and lesbian and transgender stories in the voices of the people themselves.
