THE CHOSEN HARAM

 

"A heady mix of love, drugs and Islam"

The Chosen Haram is a unique take on circus, performed on two Chinese Poles, it's emotionally candid and heart-warming with moments of humour and set to a banging soundtrack.

It is the story of two gay men, their chance meeting through a dating app, the highs and lows of their relationship and the barriers - social, cultural and personal - they must overcome.
