Gay Muslims Make a Familiar Point
Here is a quote:
In the end, Sharma is challenging us to understand God as all knowing and God as love. Such a spiritual commitment, disarming in its simplicity, would bring crashing down religious bullies and murderers all over the world.
WATCH this great interview with Muhsin, Sandi and myself with Laura Flanders on GRITtv
Laura says:
Ostensibly a film about lesbian and gay life in Muslim countries, this film is much more than a standard account of repression or intolerance. A Jihad For Love is as much about Islam as it is about sexual preference. In fact, it's a sort of coming out story for a culture.
Karin writes:
It was so nice to meet you at the IFC center. As sad as ''A Jihad for Love' is at times, it is also a beautiful and inspiring story about love and religion.
And we really need you all to show up in very large numbers this weekend! AGAIN-WE NEED THE WEEKEND BOX OFFICE NUMBERS TO CONTINUE PLAYING IN NYC-AFTER OR SMASH SUCCESS FIRST TWO WEEKENDS!
