CGiii Comment

An interesting little film...despite its theatricality.

Definitely worth watching...with regard to changing attitudes towards sexuality.

Surviving Sabu is the story of the difficult relationship between a young gay South Asian man and his father, refracted through the images of the late film star Sabu of Jungle Book and Elephant Boy.
