Our stories, their voices?
Writer-director Onir says streamers and production studios are yet to approach him for projects that explore gay or queer narratives that go beyond their acceptance in the community. As a result, the filmmaker — who is openly gay and an LGBTQiA rights activist — said films about the community often end up being presented through a cisgendered lens. “I always wonder what is preventing platforms or studios when they are reaching out to cisgendered filmmakers to tell our stories. How come no one comes to me? Are they threatened or do they think he is too gay? Have you ever heard someone say he is too straight? I find there is this silent homophobia,” he said in an interview.
