I had been wanting to address the concept of masculinities in one of my stories for a while; to explore how fragile that thing some call “being a man” can be, especially within Asian culture, where the dominance of the patriarchal structure is particularly strong due to Confucian tradition. At a time when we are experiencing a wave of homophobia and racism around the world, we believe that this short film, entirely queer in its form and theme and featuring a male protagonist who adopts a performative feminine attitude by transforming first into an onnagata and later into Sailor Moon, can help give visibility to a group that is barely represented in our cinema: the Asian-Spanish LGBTI+ community. This is also a story of intercultural dialogue. In it, a Japanese-Spanish actor and a Chinese journalist exchange reflections in a country that has served as an escape route for them, without having abandoned their identities. By this, I mean that it is essential to show the coexistence and blending of cultures and languages in our society, something that happens naturally but has few references, as Asian characters are still heavily stigmatized. Thus, I feel Kokuhaku as a song to life and empowerment, because we cannot live unless we fight for what we want and, above all, unless we embrace who we are.
