Muslim Drag Queens
D3
Muslim Drag QueensThis new compelling and powerful documentary provides unprecedented insight into the clandestine gay Asian - or 'Gaysian' - community in the UK. This community provides a vital lifeline and haven for young men who are unable to publicly reconcile their sexuality with their cultural identity and traditions. Homosexuality is widely deemed to be forbidden within Islam and the exhibitionist nature of drag remains one of the ultimate taboos for many British Asians, forcing the entire scene underground. Ian McKellen narrates. (dir: Marcus Plowright)
Angry, White and Proud
D4
Angry, White and ProudThere are few creatures more pitiful than the unreconstructed racial supremacist, and this examination of the present state of the British far right is timely following the implosion of the English Defence League. Director Jamie Roberts spent a year getting to know a few people for whom patriotism must be at someone else's expense, and considers whether the current diffusion of these sentiments makes them more or less dangerous.
