QUEER IS, is a short film that captures all that Queerness is, written, shot and created by Queer People and played by Queer People for Queer People. The film says, “being Queer is more African than being Queerphobic.” The short film is a political stance against the violence, stigma and discrimination against members of the LGBTQ+ Community. This violence has caused fear amongst individuals who identify as queer and are unfortunately unable to freely embrace their true identity within society. Misinformation, has led members of African communities to label anyone other than heterosexual as heathens, ungodly and not African, when in fact, Queerphobia is the epitome of being un-African. African soil is built from bloodshed, yet the inhabitants of this continent have overcome adversity and bequeathed unity, and loyalty amongst their families and communities. The film ‘Queer Is’ aims to unearth the misinformation regarding Queerness and unite all Africans, irrespective of their sexuality.
