An evening in Mumbai to celebrate a year of the death of Section 377
The evening covers the gamut of queer sub-continental experiences. "From a lesbian couple who are driving up to watch their son graduate in Graduation Day; to a hijra poet who hopes to break into the poetry slamming circuit in Pehli Shaadi; to a Hindi interpretation of the Manuel Puig classic, Kiss of the Spiderwoman, in which a revolutionary and a government agent share a prison cell, and slowly find their defences against each other broken down. Then, there is the experimental piece, Rapunzel 2.0, which is a take on identity and body hair. Two Soldiers, as the title suggests, is about the burgeoning love story between two men in a defence academy; while Best Man's Kiss talks about a gay man, whose lover is getting married to a woman."
