This charming film tells the story of Hompi and Charles, two men who want to marry. A tribute to the South African constitution, which outlaws discrimination, also in terms of sexual orientation, My Son the Bride makes it clear that, however liberal our constitution, prejudices aren’t easily overcome, especially when family is involved. Amusing and heart-warming, this film takes us through the wedding preparations while giving us valuable and indeed surprising insights into contemporary views on same-sex relationships, making nonsense of any notion that tolerance is the exclusive preserve of the well-heeled “chattering classes”. Mpumi and Jill will introduce the film.
