Filmmaker Ryan James Yezak has launched an effort to raise funding for "Second Class Citizens," his planned documentary about the gay rights movement -- and based on a trailer's near-instant popularity in the blogosphere , the eventual feature-length film could be a smash hit.

"I want to make a documentary that encompasses all areas in which we are discriminated against," Yezak notes. "There is far too much hate directed towards our community and I want to capture that hate on camera. In addition, I want to explore where this hate comes from, why it continues to exist, and what we must do to get rid of it."
