Coming Out in the Indian scenario is a difficult task often. While many people come out to close friends, or even siblings, revealing your sexuality is often the hardest step. Many in fact choose not to tell their parents, given how children are burdened with the expectations of marriage and progeny from a young age. Those who take the courageous step to come out to family have often times faced rejection and violence too.
This short movie too is about a son coming out to his parents. Coaxed by his brother, the man decides to tell his parents that he is Gay. But this is where things take a twist.
