Has anyone watched this movie? Just seen the trailer and it looks really good but people are claiming it is propagating an LGBT agenda. The movie was funded by the German embassy.

I watched the movie and loved it. Its better than all the previous local productions that i have watched. In some scenes it has some deep sheng (they've translated). i did not see anything that would suggested its LGBT driven.

Kenya has for the first time submitted its own candidate for an Oscar award for Best Foreign-Language Film, the US Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences announced on Monday.

"Nairobi Half Life," directed by David "Tosh" Gitonga, will compete with films from 70 other countries for the five nominations in this category.

I watched the movie. There's a scene where the main character talks about leading a double life. The (gay?) guy he is talking to misinterprets this as an internal am-I-gay-or-not conflict and therefore tries to get cozy with him. The main character immediately rejects the advances, and the story moves on swiftly.

This scene is only about 2 minutes of the entire movie. How does this make the movie be construed as propagating an LGBT agenda? Or did I miss something?
