Leeds Film Presents: No Hard Feelings

Online Event

Faraz Shariat’s vivid, fizzing debut is a moving gay love story, a thoughtful coming of age tale and an unconventional drama, probing complex issues of sexuality and identity in modern Europe. Parvis is the teenage son of exiled Iranians, living in a small town in Germany, enthusiastically pursuing a hedonistic lifestyle of raves, Grindr dates, and petty crime. After being caught shoplifting, he is sentenced to community service at a refugee shelter where he meets siblings Banafshe and Amon, who have fled Iran. His romantic attraction to Amon grows, forcing him to radically reassess his values and identity.
