Papa Rainbow by Popo Fan (80 min)
Directed by Fan Popo a filmmaker, film critic and a LGBTQ activist from China.
An important Chinese film following six mothers, one for each colour of the rainbow flag, as they spend time with their gay and lesbian children, challenging traditional chinese attitudes and values.
In China, most families have difficulties facing their lesbian, gay, bisexual and/or transgender (LGBT) children. They have to contend with common social beliefs that homosexuality is shameful, abnormal, a perverted condition caused by deviant family relationships. Many parents see their kids as their property, and fathers often assert their authority to ensure that no harm comes to the family reputation.
