SUMMARY:Pride Month Special- Tasveer Reels: The Lonely Prince
DESCRIPTION:Pride Month Special- Tasveer Reels: The Lonely Prince\nThis Pride month\, join us for an exclusive screening of The Lonely Prince followed by a live Q&A session with the filmmakers Shivin and Sunny. \nDate: Friday\, June 10th \nTime: 5:00pm-6:30 pm PST \nInspired by the lack of Queer representation in traditional Indian settings\, Shivin and Sunny decided to go back to their roots and create a new tale with a queer leading character.The Lonely Prince is inspired by classic fairy tails\, but with one twist- its the Prince that needs saving this time. The film is built around this idea of self-acceptance\, which the Prince has struggled with his entire adult life. \nDirectors Shivin and Sunny grew up in a time where homosexuality was not accepted\, even in their household. Not having any mainstream representation of their struggles on-screen only made their fear of acceptance greater. That is why the two created this story in the form of a folk tale with a hope for it to be sent down from generation to generation. \nRegister NOW!
