What it is about

Saad, a young Moroccan illegal immigrant, is planning a perilous journey to Canada with Reza, his Iranian lover. In Montreal, Saad is called upon to save his beloved from certain deportation to Iran, where inevitable punishment awaits.

What to expect

Saad, a Moroccan man living illegally in Montreal, is planning a risky move to Canada with his Iranian boyfriend Reza. When Reza faces deportation back to Iran, Saad is forced to act. Director Léa Pool keeps the focus tight on the couple's immediate predicament — the dread of separation, the practical impossibility of staying — rather than turning their story into a broader political statement. The French-language drama runs 101 minutes and screens with English subtitles as part of the Hong Kong Lesbian & Gay Film Festival 2026 on 6 September. As a festival title, it will play a limited run; check the HKLGFF schedule for session times and ticket availability.
