Movies and TvShows featuring "heterophobia" theme.

A love story of the 21st century. Hoping for change, Ema runs away from her family and leaves her husband. She hides at the apartment of her hairdresser, a gay guy Tony, even though she barely knows him. At the beginning they are merely two strangers, connected by their mutual effort of escaping from their families. They get closer and help each other to overcome the internal, as well as external, obstacles of their lives. Their liberating friendship almost becomes a love affair, despite the fact it cannot be fulfilled. This liberation creates an intense bond between them: a new escape, a new quest. This is a love story of two people and their attempts to escape the trap of their own desires of belonging to somebody.

Kanbrik (2005) is a thought-provoking drama that delves into the issues of homophobia, heteronormativity, and the desire to be true to oneself. The movie follows the story of a gay Muslim man who faces discrimination and societal pressures in a conservative society. As he navigates through life, he also grapples with themes of love, loss, and regret. Through beautiful poetry and powerful storytelling, Kanbrik challenges the audience to question their own beliefs and biases.
