Making It Fit

Directed by Mariana Leal2026UK5 mins

Making It Fit is a short animated documentary reflecting on the experience of death and mourning in the LGBTQ+ community, and the ways that navigating tradition, grief, and family often necessitates reinvention of funerary and remembrance rituals. Looking at some of the issues the current prevalent practices in Euro-American countries raise when it comes to mourning, this film will share some of the ways in which the members of the Queer community have been instinctively reinventing their grieving and celebration ceremonies for their late loved ones.
