Calalai In Betweenness

“While the gender revolution continues to make headlines across western parts of the world, and not a moment too soon, it’s humbling and encouraging to remember that other cultures are way ahead in that regard and always have been. CALALAI: IN-BETWEENNESS serves as a reminder that the question of gender shouldn’t be a polarising political subject, demonstrating instead the ease with which gender fluidity works in the everyday life of a small community.” (written by Willa Davie,  original article at http://takeonecinema.net/2019/calalai-in-betweenness)
