Shot on location and set in Sri Lanka in the 1970s and 80s, Funny Boy explores the queer awakening of a Tamil boy named Arjie. As political tensions escalate to a boiling point between the minority Tamils and the majority Sinhalese, the boy comes of age in a society and family where being gay is taboo.
