CGiii Comment
"Narrow Path to Happiness" is a feature-length documentary that charts the lives of two young gay Romani men in a positive loving relationship over three years. It is a first-of-its-kind gay-themed inter-sectional documentary out of Hungary that bridges two worlds and focuses a lens on the Roma (gypsy) aspect of the LGBTQ+ experience. Our main characters represent populations in Hungary who are actively persecuted because of their race, ethnicity and sexuality, so there is a built-in urgency to these stories. The film has also been made against the backdrop of rising authoritarianism and anti-LGBTQ+ hatred and misinformation in Hungary, and as such, this has impacted the lives of our characters and the direction of the story.
