The trailer has been released for
Breaking Fast, an upcoming queer film that follows a gay Muslim man trying to navigate romance during Ramadan.
The film, due for release on streaming platforms on 22 January, 2021, follows Mo (Haaz Sleiman), a practicing Muslim who is left reeling after a relationship falls apart.
In the aftermath of his failed relationships, Mo – a gay doctor living in West Hollywood – embarks on a new relationship with Kal (Michael Cassidy), an aspiring actor. Kal joins Mo during his nighty Iftars – the meal traditionally eaten by Muslims during Ramadan – and their relationship quickly blossoms.
The film debuted at the Cinequest Film and Creativity Festival in March and was later screened digitally at the Inside Out Film Festival in Toronto, among other festivals.
