The film follows 17-year-old Murat as he navigates his sexuality, his family and Berlin’s Turkish-German queer scene. There he meets drag performer Lola, who turns out to be his older sibling, and her lover Bili.

“Lola and Bilidikid” explores family rejection, queer kinship, racism, homophobia and violence, and asks questions about belonging and queer liberation.

The screening will be followed by a discussion moderated by Jowe Harfouche.
