Stream Love Refugees with your Tello subscription — a powerful LGBTQ+ documentary short about same-sex binational couples whose relationships are threatened by immigration laws. From boundless plains to the land of the free, to the world's most progressive city and back again — filmmaker crosses hearts connected in search of a place where love counts. Love Refugees follows lesbian and gay couples forced to navigate international borders, visa restrictions and unequal legal recognition simply to be together. Rather than focusing solely on politics, the film centers on the emotional realities of sapphic and queer couples searching for a country where their relationship is legally recognized and where they can finally build a life together. A deeply human WLW and LGBTQ+ story about love, borders and the fight for equality. Stream on Tello Films.
