‘FIREBIRD’ FILM REVIEW: GAY USSR ROMANCE LOOKS GEO BUT THE STORY FALLS APART
Wh Rsia unr fire culturally and polilly over s vasn of Ukrae, soon-to-be-released gay film Firebird offers a fascatg sight to gay love agast the backdrop of war. * gay firebird movie *
New gay film Firebird offers a fascatg sight to love agast the backdrop of war. This isn’t a tale of angst-ridn gays; both men are at ease wh their sexualy, but the Soviet Unn is not.
It’s an aspect that mak this an tertg pann piece to Sebastian Meise’s Great Freedom—part of which is set a siar perd Germany when gay men ntued to be crimalized followg the Send World War—and Arthur Dong’s excellent documentary Comg Out Unr Fire, examg the history of the treatment of LGBTQ members of the ary by the US ernment. There is an unniable tensn Firebird between s aspiratn to be a grty perd piece and s sire to be an exhibn of homoerotic beekkery, and I’m not sure the film’s director (Peeter Rebane) effectively signals to which si he’d prefer his dience to lean. The disproportnate foc that gay romance films have on whe, cisgenr, mcular leadg men is a symptom of larger issu the queer muny, and ’s time we started to curate a more reprentative non of LGBTQ+ films.

Firebird's 'other woman' character, Luisa, did exist, and further rearch to Firebird reveals that her and Sergey's relatnship was far more straed the origal script; effort has clearly been ma to make her character feel ls like a moralistic judgement on the ma relatnship and more like a real and nuanced the two-dimensnal homophobe character which hnts our pair throughout the film is ground by a sister post-creds scene, which didn't add nuance to the character per se, but grounds him as a metaphor for the ghoulish queerphobic vlence which still plagu ex-soviet stat today. And while wtern gay media mt make an effort to tell more tersectnal queer narrativ, there is an unniable value to pictg the stori of gay men the untri nsirg they’re currently beg round up to ncentratn mps.
Its sweepg plot and ary backdrop give a flavour and athetic not dissiar to the romanc of classic Hollywood, and I'm lookg forward to re-watchg the uple navigate the prsur of anti-gay society. “Beg gay was a crimal offence. ” Rebane knew he was gay at the age of ne.

”Remarkably for a film wh such overtly gay ntent, several exterr scen were filmed Mosw. “After that, ” adds Prr, “there was a plat about beg ‘homosexual propaganda’.
