“Is this a hostage situation?

Until when are they going to protest?

What happens if the negotiation breaks down?”

       - Philippine Transgender Activist at the Surabaya Conference

The 4th Asian Regional Lesbian, Gay, Transgender and Intersex Association (ILGA) conference scheduled to be held on March 26-28, 2010 in Surabaya, Indonesia, ended before it could start.  Conference participants were threatened by religious fundamentalist lead by the Islamic Defenders Front (FPI), and the conference organizers were forced to cancel the conference. 

Queer Comrades was among the 150 participants who travelled from all around Asia to take part in the conference.  We bring you back compelling images from the conference confusion, and testify in this documentary about the toughness of Asian LGBT activists.

 

别了！泗水

“我们都是人质吗？

到什么时候他们准备示威？

如果协商不成那会怎么样？”

       －在泗水大会的菲律宾跨性别活动家

第四届亚洲区国际同志大会原本计划在2010年3月26到28号在印度尼西亚的泗水召开，结果各国会议代表却遭到了当地原教旨主义伊斯兰组织（FPI）的威胁，大会组委会在最后时刻被迫取消了会议。同志亦凡人也是远赴印尼作为亚洲150位会议代表之一，我们从混乱的会议现场带回来了最真实的画面，同时从我们的影像中，你们将会看到当今亚洲同志活动家面对的艰难现实。

 

PRAYERS FOR BOBBY

 

 

 

 

Director: Russel Mulcahy, USA 2009, 89 min

2010 GLAAD Media Award

This film is based on the true story of Mary Griffith, a devout Christian who raises her children with the conservative teachings of the Presbyterian Church.  When her son Bobby confides to his older brother he may be gay, life changes for the entire family.  Mary believes God can cure him of what she considers his ‘sin’ and persuades Bobby to pray harder and seek solace in church activities in hopes of changing him.  Bobby grows increasingly withdrawn and depressed, and is ultimately driven to suicide. 

Faced with the tragedy, Mary begins to question her faith when she receives no answers from her pastor concerning her devastating loss.  Through her long and emotional journey, Mary slowly reaches out to the gay community and discovers unexpected support from a very unlikely source.

 

天佑鲍比

 

导演：Russel Mulcahy，美国，2009，89分钟

2010 GLAAD 媒体将

本片根据真人真事改编。Bobby是一个善良、温顺、虔诚的少年，他有爱他的父母奶奶和哥哥妹妹。然而在他向家人坦白自己有同性恋倾向后，一切改变了。Bobby的母亲Mary深信圣经关于同性恋会下地狱的训诫，想尽办法矫正儿子，却没有意识到Bobby的痛苦与日俱增。她望着Bobby一字一句的说：我不要有一个同性恋儿子。Bobby伤心的离开家，开车到高速路的桥头，噙着泪水纵身跳下...
Bobby的死彻底唤醒了他的家人。Mary在无尽的悔恨中开始接触同性恋人群，参加PFLAG小组，与神职人员探讨圣经解释。Mary此后将毕生投入到同志维权事业中。她在推动市议会同志自由日提案时留下名句：“当你们在家中、教堂说出阿门时，想想和记得，有个孩子在倾听。”就如一道永恒阳光，照亮了无数困惑、绝望和渴求认同的同志青少年。
