Résumé

Voici une critique du documentaire The Fruit Machine réalisé par Sara Fodey. Ce documentaire fait la lumière sur une sombre période de l’histoire canadienne. À partir des témoignages de survivants et d’historiens, The Fruit Machine illustre comment un état démocratique a pu légalement mener une campagne de discrimination à l’encontre de ses propres citoyens dont le seul crime était d’être « homosexuel » (ou d’en être soupçonné). Pendant cinquante ans, des institutions gouvernementales canadiennes ont traqué et interrogé des milliers d’individus soupçonnés d’homosexualité. Ne manquez pas ce film.
