=Magic realism,
village life, loving yourself.=
It is easy to be out in a cosmopolitan,
urban environment. But when you are the only queer in the village,
and you are a popular and respected guy, and you have the love and
devotion of a wonderful wife… why rock the boat? Ah, but being
yourself may just be a matter of life and death.
--A beautiful and gentle parable about
queerness.
