I don't know whether they'd ever achieve the freedom to be who they are, but power to them for keeping their courage alive and I wish them the best to find a way out to the freedom and acceptance they deserve.
    And kudos to the movie for reflecting the real side of the hardships we LGBTQ people in South Asian societies face, and I hope one day we'd be as advanced as Canada or NZ when it comes to treating LGBTQ people with respect. 🏳️‍🌈

All these 17 years of my life have been spent in fear, with no one to talk to. My family want me to get married but i don't want to exchange one prison for another, nor do i want to ruin someone else life.

    I just want to say one thing living in Pakistan and having a thinking like this is incredible. The thing is that in India people are accepting it gradually but in Pakistan I don't know. A lot of LGBT members are having a tough time and I hope the Pakistani government learns something and finally accepts it as a matter of fact and allow them to happily. To me I think that the new generation in Pakistan is not homophobic but the older generation ofcourse. This society will never accept it and I know it and the other thing is that this society doesn't even accept a girl and boy's affair so how can they even accept these relationships. Even though I am not gay I still respect them and support them. It really takes a man to step up and show what they believe in.
    Lots of love.

      I don't understand how you all can think things are gradually changing in India; you don't live there. In the large cities things may be a bit better, but in rural places it is terrible. Even the police continue with their bad behaviour, just as they do with everybody else. A law is only as effective as it is applied. When family and society don't accept you, a law is no respite.

    A truly moving film: it also showcases the natural and perpetual advantage of being from a superior social class and the vulnerability of belonging to the one that is inferior- in more ways than one, as scorchingly epitomised in the climax, no matter what the setting.

    Woah! The film is beautiful. Even in the countries where the laws r passed ppl think of homosexuals or bisexuals as gross. Ik that not every person has this mentality but majority of ppl think like that and it's literally not right. No one can decide their sexuality but others can help them by supporting them. And in countries like Pakistan, where laws r not passes, homosexuals can't do anything but to accept what rules he society has set.
    I don't usually watch short films but I'm surely going to recommend this to my frnds ^_^
