Farewell to Xulhaz
a short film by Larissa Korporaal
A poetic film about overcoming depression through art after the murder of a dear friend who was killed because he was 'propagating sinful homosexuality'.
​
Farewell to Xulhaz is about friendship, murder, depression and how art can reach you when nothing else can.
Even though this is a personal film, it addresses the universal themes of love, depression, resilience and hope."
"We need to have high dreams to survive through this bitter reality" - Xulhaz Mannan
