What would you do to survive if you were old, disabled and ill - afraid of discrimination or abuse? Gen Silent is the new LGBT documentary that asks six LGBT seniors if they will hide their true identities in order to survive.

They put a face on what experts in the film call an epidemic: LGBT seniors so afraid of discrimination and abuse, in long-term health care that some go back into the closet. Many of our greatest generation are dying prematurely because they don't ask for help and have too few people in their lives to care for them.
