Kawa

I have a hard time understanding how this is from a woman's point of view and how the topic isn't believable in 2012. It is a misconception by most gay people in urban areas that the conflict over sexuality has dissipated in the large majority of the world. There is still legislation being proposed to put people to death in Africa. Having said that Kawa is a very thoughtful film about the consequences of overbearing parental/cultural expectations placed on a boy so that he tries to morph himself into something that he can never be. The cinematography is beautiful, the acting is very good. If your not jaded and have an ounce of empathy this is a beautiful film about how social pressure can deform a child trying to live up to the expectations of being the man his family/church/government expects him to be.
