Men Who Hate Drags

Men Who Hate Drags

2025 • 27 min • Italy
In a world often populated by clichés, stereotypes, and misunderstandings, “Men Who Hate Drags” is a story told by the voices of those who live a little-known and, for many, idealized reality every day. Through testimonials, gags, and real-life metamorphoses, the young people of “The Shade” guide and accompany the viewer from the organization to the staging of the end-of-season show. The story begins in the living room of “The Shade”, a queer space created with the intention of combining debate and entertainment, with the common goal of offering a safe environment for those who frequent it. In this setting, we meet the protagonists, initially busy organizing costumes, props, and scripts. Next, we follow the preparations in the hours leading up to the performance, witnessing the makeup and hair styling of each drag queen, until we arrive at the show and the conclusion of what we have seen previously. We soon realize that each stage of the show's production is, in fact, a simple tool that allows the viewer to immerse themselves more and more not only in the show itself, but, above all, in the stories of the people who create it. This allows the viewer to gain a new perspective on a little-known reality.

Eitai - Community Togetherness

Eitai - Community Togetherness

2025 • 59 min • United Kingdom, Uganda
Eitai, an Iteso word for community togetherness, is a documentary exploring change in rural Uganda. The film delves into the challenges faced by a rural community in Northeastern Uganda. Eitai explores critical global issues including the interconnected challenges of climate change, poverty, and gender-based violence. It highlights how social enterprise projects not only provide economic opportunities but also create safe spaces for knowledge sharing, environmental action, and community sensitisation via music, dance, and drama. Through vivid storytelling, Eitai underscores the importance of indigenous knowledge and communitarianism in addressing pressing global crises. It calls for stronger relationships among people, the land, and non-humans to mitigate further environmental degradation. The film also captures unique narratives on combating HIV and GBV, as told by participants through their lived experiences and cultural expressions. The film is not only a celebration of the resilience and resourcefulness of communities in Teso, but also a platform for international knowledge exchange to address global challenges.

A young boy becomes convinced a ghost is stalking him. Every misfortune—his torn schoolbag, missing homework, a trashed desk, even perpetually “dirty” hair—feels like the spirit’s prank. He begs his parents and classmates to believe him, but no one does. Desperate, his parents bring him to a folk exorcist who paints a talisman across the boy’s face and orders him not to wash it off for three days. The ritual changes nothing. Instead, the talisman makes him an even easier target at school. When classmates refuse to play with him unless he wipes it away, he gives in, earning a fleeting moment of acceptance that blurs reality with fantasy—before the cruelty resumes. As dreams and daily life intercut, the “ghost” silhouette increasingly mirrors the classmates’ actions: stolen money, shredded notebooks, trash stuffed into his desk, shampoo poured out. The final reveal reframes the story: the haunting was misdirection, and the boy’s “ghost” is the shape of bullying he can’t yet name.
