As I have been posting recently on the challenges of the Far Right and the need to uphold the principles of tolderance, anti-racism and multiculturalism, I thought it interesting as an Irish gay man to include a link here to a film recently directed by a bisexual woman friend of mine from a Muslim background about how this might actually work in the practice and some of the inherent contradictions and interfaces which we have to navigate through in order to reach a genuinely inclusive society.
She submitted
this film recently for the
Best of Boroughs film award, representing Southwark, and under the auspices of
Flim London. Although a short film I think it makes a powerful point in a short timeframe. The title of the film is 'What are you looking at' with all its inherent meanings of agression and intolerance but also a challenge to the heterogenous norm from those who are labelled as 'the other'.
