In Praise of Pariah

Update: 2022-04-11

Description

In this episode, we're breaking out the tissues to discuss Pariah (2011), the pinnacle of coming out narratives, and a masterclass in writing and character development. This queer classic deserves all the praise, all the (belated) awards...all the everything tbh! Grab your tissues and stay tuned. [Content warning for discussions of homophobia and child abuse.]
