The colourful characters in Freestyle challenge prevailing morality in dominant- and sub-cultures across the globe. In Kuhani, an African priest struggles with his passion and conscience in an eclectic tale on the cultural and political clash in Uganda, where church, state and populism repress sexual minorities. In Jessy, a woman fulfills, with the help of her godmothers, her dream of becoming a drag queen. 'Bambuco' is a Colombian musical genre that could be considered a national symbol. In Wilson y Los Más Elegantes we witness the birth of a new musical trio when we follow the Belgian singer of the band, artist Hans Bryssinck, while interpreting traditional songs at family gatherings. And, finally, we go with the Propeller Group on an intense visual and musical journey through the phantasmagoric funeral traditions and rituals of South Vietnam.
