The UK & Europe’s largest South Asian film festival is back, kicking off with a series of upbeat movies, online on the last Sunday of each month, ahead of our June festival in London, Birmingham and Manchester, and online at LoveLIFFatHome.
Evening Shadows + Q&A
12A | Hindi with English subtitles | Available in the UK only
Sunday 28th February | 3PM – 7PM
Marking LGBT+ History Month, multi award-winning Evening Shadows (12A) is a tender heart-warming story, set in a small town in Southern India, where a young man comes out to his mother and the upheaval it causes with the traditional family and society around it. The sensitively handled film, directed by award winning Indian filmmaker and gay activist Sridhar Rangayan, underlines the challenges gay men continue to face in India to come out to their family, as well as question the dominant patriarchal social mores.
The film is 102 mins long and will be available to watch from 3pm. Start watching by 5pm at the latest to avoid missing the end of the film.
