Fawzia Mirza:
Noor & Layla is about reclaiming rituals and is inspired by my quest to connect my Muslim and South Asian realities with my queer identity. It s inspired by moments I shared with my wife, Andria Wilson Mirza, sheltering in place in Toronto during the month of Ramadan in 2020. We d gotten married in a very private, small, wedding on February 2, 2020, just before the pandemic hit (incidentally, married and witnessed by our executive producers Chani Nicholas and Sonya Passi). And so our first Ramadan together as wives was isolated and away from community. But during that time, we shared many rituals together, Ramadan rituals and also marriage rituals that we didn t get to have at our wedding. It reminded me the importance of celebrating our love and triumphs in ways that matter to us, regardless of what our families or communities may think. It got me thinking, how can we as queer people reclaim rituals from our faith and culture and family, and create our own tradition
