Chan Di Chummi / Kiss The Moon

...I wish I had a real lover... ...I wish I had a husband, a child and a family of my own... ...but this cruel world will never let that happen. These are the words one hears when it becomes intimate between you and \"Khusras\", a strongly in-grouped community in Pakistan. A country ruled by a mix of religious fanaticism, military and under-grown democratic elite. KISS THE MOON is a passionate attempt to create an intimate contact with the Khusra community, to comprehend how it feels to live in a world where life, in a very black and white way, is always either masculine or feminine. The ultimate goal of the film is to cross the boundaries of gender and talk about the issues of \"being\",and of the endless desire to be loved and to love.
