GLOBAL GAZE (SHORTS)
Although queer rights have dramatically improved in recent decades, in many parts of our world, countless people still live in terror and are violently persecuted because of their sexuality. This collection of superbly crafted and deeply thought provoking short films brings to light the experiences of those attempting to flee from persecution to find a safer place to be who they are.
In Refuge a star football player from West Africa finds himself suddenly terrified of the childhood friend he was counting on to help him escape to the US. To The Marriage Of True Minds poetically tells of the love between two Iraqi men caught in the bureaucracy and red tape of the refugee process. Set in South Africa, Mosa recounts the brutal story of a young woman who suffered correctional rape at the hands of her cousins. From Norway, Iris 2010 prizewinner The Samaritan is a stunning portrait of generosity, dependency, trust and abuse featuring a relationship between an older man and a young illegal immigrant.
