Queer as Punk
In Muslim-majority Malaysia, a queer punk band led by a transman are outliers of the system – carving out spaces to exist through their music while challenging conservative traditions and religious extremism. Faris is a transman and lead singer of ‘Shh..Diam!’, an openly queer punk band in Malaysia. Together with his bandmates Yon and Yoyo, they use their music to fight for LGBTQI+ rights in a country where human rights and freedom of expression is severely curtailed by a conservative Muslim society. Faced with increasing discrimination, Yoyo decides to leave Malaysia. Despite the challenges, Faris chooses to stay, determined to continue using their music as a platform for advocating for freedom and equality, refusing to let the pressures of society silence their voice. Languages: Malay and English with English subtitles.DocumentaryPT1H28M152025-05-15Yihwen Chen
