Tracking the unlikely love affair of a closeted gay Muslim from a traditional Turkish family and a blond Belgian boy, Mixed Kebab vividly delves into class, culture, and bigotry. Bram lives a double life, at once a dutifully religious Muslim, and also a casual drug dealer and closeted gay man. When Bram flies off to Turkey to meet his future wife, he brings his friend Kevin, and soon an illicit love affair develops between the two men. Things soon come to an explosive crossroad when Bram tries to navigate not between two worlds, but four: traditional and modern, gay and straight. TLA Releasing (tlareleasing.com). —Troy Carrington
