Layla

This film had the entire movie theatre in stitches of laughter throughout! It felt really important to watch something that captured a side of the community that's rarely given such a platform and without all the tropes of the queer stories we're used to seeing. For the audience it's intended for, Layla is a hilarious yet poignant story with beautiful writing, fab set design, perfect casting and two stellar performances from Layla (played by Bilal Hasna) and Max (played by Louis Greatorex). I wish there'd been more films like this when I was growing up. Huge bravo to all those involved, looking forward to seeing what you create next.
