Layla is a struggling Muslim drag performer in London whose confident façade hides their desperate desire for love. At the lowest point in their life, they are surprised to win the affection of Max, a charming, successful white gay man who is bewitched by Layla’s power on stage.
Two people on the edge of life find purpose and romance through an unlikely connection, escaping the darkness in search of some sunlight. A hilariously dark and unconventional love story where one of the protagonists is always dressed in a monkey costume...
The 24th edition of the Transilvania International Film Festival (Cluj-Napoca, June 13–22, 2025) will open with Christy (dir. Brendan Canty, Ireland/UK, 2025), a hopeful coming-of-age story about resilience and the power to start over, recently awarded at the Berlinale.
Christy, seventeen, is forced to move in with his estranged older half-brother after being thrown out of his suburban foster home.
