'' Yours Emotionally'' is a United Kingdom-Indian co-produced film with a gay theme. The film was selected for participation in LGBT film festivals in San Francisco (Frameline, formerly the San Francisco International Lesbian and Gay Film Festival), New York (NewFest), Amsterdam and others. ==Summary== The film raises issues of cultural identities and challenges stereotypes. It is an important milestone in making visible the invisible Indian gay community. The director Sridhar Rangayan, who earlier made the award winning film ''The Pink Mirror'' says that what is wonderful about this film is the fearless participation, for the first time, of more than 100 gay and transsexual members of gay groups like The Humsafar Trust in Mumbai and Lakshya in Gujarat. Reviewing the film for Frameline30, Corey Eubanks wrote: :"From the director of ''The Pink Mirror'' (Frameline27) comes this intoxicating queer journey through India. Ravi is a young Indian man living in England who impulsively heads to an all-night gay party in an Indian village, dragging his British friend Paul along. :Fueled by erotic performances, flirting and sex, Ravi connects at the party with Mani, a closeted working-class guy. Rooming at the very gay-friendly hotel belonging to Murthy and Anna, an older gay couple who have been together for more than thirty years, Ravi decides to stay for a few days to pursue what may be the love of his life, but the consequences of their hedonistic night catch up with them. With bursts of surreal images and scenes, Ravi tries to reconnect with Mani, but the situation becomes rocky when his slutty friend Paul flaunts his own careless hook-up with Mani. :Thankfully, Ravi has the wisdom of Murthy and Anna to guide him. They share their stories of defying tradition, loving against all odds and being true to oneself. Invigorated by his time with the couple, Ravi meets Mani once again to see if their fates may indeed be intertwined. :In addition to the colorful and bizarre situations, the camera lingers lovingly over the queer Indian male body and exalts its sexuality. With a consistently surreal look, Yours Emotionally feels like a beautiful fever dream inspired by both avant-garde gay cinema and the tropes of Bollywood." The film is produced by Niranjan Kamatkar of ''Wise Thoughts'', London and co-produced by Solaris Pictures, Mumbai, India. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Yours Emotionally」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
