Episode 8 is Part One of Queer Voices in Yogyakarta- a two-episode collection of stories of LGBTQ+ struggle and self-exploration, as told by young queer residents of Yogyakarta in Java, Indonesia. In part one NGO worker Astrid Febriyanti provides a comprehensive overview of Indonesian attitudes to LGBTQ+ culture before Ai and Ferdi, a Muslim lesbian and a Christian gay man, tell us about their experiences of navigating queerness, faith and family.
