Touch of Pink (12A) + Q&A
-
Tue 22 Apr
Alim is so caught up in the romance, style and dreams of old Hollywood that he thinks he’s living with the spirit of Cary Grant. A young, Ismaili Canadian based in London, Alim lives with his handsome English boyfriend, Giles.
Alim and Giles are happy together, until Alim’s mother Nuru shows up for a visit. Totally unaware that her son is gay, let alone that he is living with Giles, Nuru has come to London to find Alim a proper Ismaili-Muslim girlfriend and to convince him to come home to Canada.
A comic clash of cultures, values and sexuality, Touch of Pink remains a touchstone of queer cinema more than 20 years after its initial release.
