Abstract

Although homosexuality has always been a part of human civilizations, it has not always been positively accepted. From religions to mass culture, we have seen a major objection to homosexuality. This rejection can instill fear in individuals who identify as queer or homosexual. Male loving another male is still consider as a crime and homosexual people as criminals. Even among young people, a sizable segment of Indian culture still views homosexuality as taboo. The movie highlights the controversy around homosexuality. In a challenging milieu, homosexuality is discovered, the ensuing bewilderment and bravado are explored in "Cobalt Blue.".
