Jeder Tag ein Kampf? Queere Menschen in Deutschland / 2022

Summer 2021: The Allianz Arena in Munich is to be lit up in rainbow colors for Germany's match against Hungary. UEFA forbids this - and Germany is in a rainbow frenzy in protest: landmarks are illuminated in color, rainbow flags are hoisted, and the country's own tolerance is celebrated. Germany, a paradise for queer people? Reporter Klaas-Wilhelm Brandenburg has had other experiences. "Die Story im Ersten" meets queer people in various phases of their lives: children at school, young people at work, senior citizens in nursing homes. We take stock after five years of "marriage for all": How equal are queer people in Germany? How tolerant is our society really?
