We reignited our coverage of the BFI Flare: London LGBTQIA+ Film Festival by diving into their 12 Programmes of shorts and have selected 9 films which deserve top billing on your must watchlist for the festival this year.

We Are Faheem & Karun

Inspired by a true story of a gay army man and initially banned by India's Ministry of Defence, we speak to Onir about surmounting the hurdles of censorship for his BFI Flare premiering queer love story 'We Are Faheem & Karun', the tale of forbidden romance which blossoms amid the chaos of geopolitical conflict that was shot in the border area of India and Pakistan and is the first Kashmiri language LGBTQI+ themed film.
