Friday Night Productions Presents:
"Re-writing the Script: A Love Letter to Our Families".

With the sponsorship of Supporting Our Youth, the Desi-Queer: South Asian Video Project collective has successfully created a video for and about South Asian queers and their families.

The project originated at a workshop at the 1998 Desh Pardesh Festival, and is aimed to help South Asian parents and families in their journey toward understanding and accepting their lesbian, gay, bisexual, transsexual and transgendered children and family members. In the past year, the project has focused upon research, pre-interviews, staff hiring, filming interviews and the big job of editing. Further fundraising and community outreach are also happening.

"Re-writing the Script: A Love Letter to Our Families" launched in Toronto on October 27, 2001. International launch dates are scheduled in Seattle WA, Montreal QUE, New York NY and Vancouver B.C.
