Diana, a shortfilm directed and written by Aleem Khan, is about a pre-op transsexual named, Mohit. Rejected by his family and those around him, he works as a prostitute in London, lurking around and earning for his hormone therapy. People, as ignorant as ever, even in London, continue to neglect what they may consider his fault. I mean, considering all of the possibilities, how can it be his fault?
It's showcased the day after Princess Diana's death, and in a way, Mohit is able to relate to her, considering being said that Princess Diana was also a victim of rejection.
Nobody gets to choose their gender or that, live under the pressure of what society may think of them. That being transsexual/gay/lesbian or anything of that kind, is a sin.
Nonetheless, it's pretty intense. Even in a 11min movie, I had tears falling down my face. Rejection..a doomed weapon!
