Ma nā ʻano he nui, ʻo ka mea kākau / alakaʻi ʻo Nick Verso a me kāna mau kiʻi ʻoniʻoni ke kumu nui o ka Q ma LGBTQ.

ʻĀ, ʻo kekahi o nā manaʻo, ʻā.

ʻO ka mōʻaukala o ka "Q" ma ka LGBTQ acronym kahi lōʻihi a pīhoihoi hoʻi, akā i ka hōʻuluʻulu ʻana, ua kū ʻia no ka "nīnau" ʻana no ka poʻe e ʻimi nei ʻo wai lākou a ma hea lākou e kūpono ai i ka wai o ka moekolohe a ke kāne wahine a no ka "queer" no ka poʻe ʻike maopopo i ko lākou ʻano ma kēlā ʻano akā ʻike ʻia ka hoʻokaʻawale koʻikoʻi o ka wahine kāne kāne, wahine kāne ʻole, ʻelua a me trans i nele i kā lākou wehewehe ʻana iā ʻoe iho.

Ma hope o ka hala ʻana o ka manawa, a me ka nui o ka hoʻopakele ʻana ma kā mākou ʻāpana, ua hoʻomaka kekahi e hoʻohana i ka huaʻōlelo "queer" ma ke ʻano he hua moe no ka ʻōlelo holoʻokoʻa.

Akā haʻalele au ...

I ko Verso hihia, ua moʻo ʻole ʻo ia e pili ana i kona kūlana aliʻi akā makemake ʻo ia e lepili iā ia iho e pale i ka pena ʻia ʻana o kāna mau kiʻi ʻoniʻoni me kahi palaki liʻiliʻi. E ʻae ʻo ia e ʻōlelo i kāna hana e hana ai nona iho.

ʻO kāna mau kiʻi ʻoniʻoni ʻoi loa ke ʻano o ke ʻano, ke hui pū nei i nā ʻano, ke hōʻole ʻana i nā lepili koʻikoʻi, a ua noho pū ʻo Verso me aʻu e kamaʻilio e pili ana i ʻelua mau kiʻi ʻoniʻoni no iHorror's Horror Pride Month.

Ua hoʻomaka ke kamaʻilio me kāna kiʻi ʻoniʻoni mua, kahi pōkole weliweli i kāhea ʻia ʻO ka manawa hope loa aʻu i ʻike ai iā Richard.

"ʻO ia ke kiʻi ʻoniʻoni mua i hana ʻia, akā ʻo ka lua i kākau maoli ʻia," wehewehe ʻo Verso. "Ua kākau mua wau ʻO nā keikikāne i loko o nā kumulāʻau i kēlā manawa. ”

E like me ka mea i hele aʻe, ʻO ka manawa hope loa aʻu i ʻike ai iā Richard ua hana ʻia ma ke ʻano he kiʻi ʻoniʻoni pōkole e hōʻike i ka mea a Verso i hiki ke hana a hoʻopaʻa i ke kālā e hana i kāna hiʻona mua.

Hōʻike ke kiʻi ʻoniʻoni i ka moʻolelo o nā keikikāne ʻōpio ʻelua, ʻo Jona (Toby Wallace) lāua ʻo Richard (Cody Fern), i hui ma kahi keʻena olakino noʻonoʻo ke koi ʻia lāua e kaʻana like i kahi lumi. Hoʻoweliweli kekahi mea iā Richard ... mau mea ʻeleʻele i kū mai nā aka i ka pō e hoʻomāinoino iā ia.

I ka pili kokoke ʻana o nā keikikāne, a me ka loli o kā lākou pilina, ʻike lākou i ka loaʻa ʻole o ka mana o kēlā mau ʻeleʻele e hōʻeha iā Richard ke hui pū lākou.

He kiʻi ʻoniʻoni kupaianaha ia i kahaha iaʻu i ka manawa mua aʻu i ʻike ai. ʻAʻole wau i ʻike i kekahi mea e like me ia ma mua me nā alakaʻi kāne ʻelua ma kahi a mākou e ʻimi mau ai i kahi kāne a wahine.

ʻO kēia ʻano moho ka mea i ʻimi pono ʻia e Verso mai kona wā kamaliʻi.

"ʻAʻole hiki iaʻu ke loaʻa kahi hiʻohiʻona o ke kāne kāne hiki ke hoʻomaopopo iaʻu i koʻu wā ʻōpio," i ʻōlelo ʻo ia. “ʻO ia ke kumu e hana ai au i nā kiʻi ʻoniʻoni aʻu e hana ai. Makemake wau iā lākou e hoʻopiʻi i kēlā me kēia, me nā poʻe e noho ana i nā wahi hina e like me aʻu. "

He kūleʻa nui ke kiʻi pōkole a ma hope o kekahi mau hoʻomaka a kū, ua hele ʻo Verso i ka hana ʻana i kāna hiʻohiʻona mua loa me ʻO nā keikikāne i loko o nā kumulāʻau.

I ke kiʻi ʻoniʻoni, hui hou hou mākou me Iona, ʻoiai ua loli ke ʻano o kāna kūlana, a ʻo ka manaʻo maoli a Verso e hoʻokani hou i ka mea like.

Hoʻokahi wale nō pilikia ... ua ulu nui ʻo Toby Wallace mai ka pau ʻana o ke kiʻi ʻoniʻoni a ʻaʻole pono ʻo ia i ka ʻāpana hou a ʻoiai e hoʻomākaukau ana ʻo ia e hoʻokani i ke kuleana no nā makahiki, ua noi koke ʻo Verso iā ia e kuapo i ka minuke hope.

"Ma kahi o ke ala, ua ulu ʻo ia i alakaʻi nui," ʻakaʻaka ʻo Verso. “Maʻalahi loa ia. ʻO Iona ke kuleana e huki ai i ka nānā akā ʻo Corey [ka hana a Wallace i hana ai] ʻoi aku ka nui o ka papa a ʻoi aku ka paʻakikī o ka pāʻani ʻana. ”

Hoʻoweliweli mau ʻia ʻo Iona e kahi hui homophobic o nā ʻōpio ma kekahi kūlanakauhale liʻiliʻi ma Australia, a ʻo Corey kahi lālā. ʻIke koke mākou, akā, he mau hoaaloha loa ʻo Iona a me Corey i hoʻokahi pō Halloween nui loa, ma hope o kahi hālāwai kolohe nui loa, ua hoʻohoka ʻo Iona iā Corey e hele wāwae iā ia i ka home a ma ke ala a lākou e pāʻani ai i kahi pāʻani o ka make-whakapono ua pāʻani mua lākou. nā manawa a pau.

Malia paha e ka mana creepy o Halloween a i ʻole kekahi ikaika ʻike ʻole ʻole ʻia, hoʻi nā moʻo o ko lākou wā ʻōpio e hoʻokipa iā lākou a me nā ʻīlio ʻeleʻele i ko lākou kuʻekuʻe wāwae.

"ʻAno like ke kiʻi ʻoniʻoni A Christmas Carol ma Halloween wale nō, "i ʻōlelo ʻo Verso. "Lawe ʻia ʻoe i ka wā i hala a hōʻike i nā mea he nui i ko lākou alo ʻana i kēlā mau moʻo nui."

A i hoʻokahi hanana nui, e holoholo ana ʻo Corey lāua ʻo Iona i loko o kahi hoʻolauleʻa no Dia de Los Muertos, a ʻo ia kekahi o nā ʻano haʻalulu o kona ʻano aʻu i ʻike ai. Hīmeni kahi wahine hoʻokahi i kahi mele kanikau i ka wā o ka lehulehu e kiaʻi ana e hoʻopuni ʻia e nā kāhiko waihoʻoluʻu a me nā kiʻi o nā ʻohana i hele i kēlā ʻaoʻao.

Ua nalowale ʻo Corey lāua ʻo Iona i ko lāua mau makuahine ma nā ʻano like ʻole a hoʻohana ʻo Verso i ka hanana e hoʻopili hou iā lākou i kēlā mau wahine ʻaʻole i ko lākou ola.

"Pākuʻi ʻia nā makuahine ma kēia kiʻi ʻoniʻoni," i ʻōlelo ʻo ia. "He ala nani wale ia e hoʻohanohano ai i ka poʻe make a manaʻo ʻia e like me ke ala kūpono e haʻi ai i kēia ʻāpana o ka moʻolelo."

He maka koʻikoʻi ʻo Verso no ka hanana a ua hiki iā ia ke hana i nā kiʻi e weliweli a hoʻoweliweli hoʻi i ka manawa like, a ʻo ia ka mea e hoʻokumu ai i kēia mea pena kiʻi loea i waiwai nui i ka ʻano weliweli a keu hoʻi i kēlā mau mea hoʻolohe ʻē aʻe i ʻike iā lākou iho i nā ʻāpana hina o ka moekolohe. a me ke ʻano o ka ʻike kāne.

Hiki iāʻoe keʻike ʻO ka manawa hope loa aʻu i ʻike ai iā Richard ma Shudder a ʻO nā keikikāne i loko o nā kumulāʻau loaʻa ma Netflix!
