Film In Focus in Toronto : a jihad for loveThere are very few words in our contemporary culture that are as charged as the word "jihad". It has been used as a kind of talisman for conjuring up the fears of Western society for the resurgence of political, economic and ideological influence of the Muslim world. Indian-born Muslim director Parvez Sharma uses the word in the title of his debut documentary film in its more literal Arabic meaning. Rather than simply being equated with "holy war", Sharma unfolds a story of its literal meaning....."struggle" or "to strive in the path of God". This path is especially difficult for those in the Muslim world who are struggling with self-acceptance of themselves as gay men and lesbian women, in a society and religious culture that is hostile and uncomfortable with their mere presence. 17.09.2007 | Editor's blog Cat. : A Jihad for Love Asia CAIRO Canada Disaster Disaster Egypt Europe Gender Homosexuality Homosexuality and Islam Human behavior Human sexuality India Intersectionality Iran Jihad Muhsin Hendricks Muslim Paris Parvez Sharma Parvez Sharma Pervez Sharma Religion Religion Sandi DuBowski Sandi Simcha DuBowski Sandy Mandelberger Sexual orientation Social Issues Social Issues South Africa Toronto Toronto FF Dailies Trembling Before G-d TREMBLING BEFORE GOD Turkey |
