            Segment titled International Focus from Episode 402 of In the Life, television’s longest-running LGBTQ news magazine in the U.S. Features interviews with Cuban artists and activists who at the time identified as gays and lesbians: Eduardo Valoria (Samantha), Lizbet Gispert, [Odaymar] Cuesta Rousseaux, Osbel Suárez Breijo, and Andrix Gudin Williams.
            Subjects speak on the efforts being made to forge a Gay and Lesbian Alliance as well as the importance of creating spaces where LGBTQ people can socialize and discuss their ideas. They discuss the challenges faced by LGBTQ people in Cuba and the ramifications of foreign activist groups visiting the island. The segment also discusses the impact of the film Fresa y Chocolate and features short footage from a meeting between activists from Cuba and the Queers for Cuba delegation, and Cuban government officials.
