The blue party is a satirical short film set against the backdrop of a national colorism debate. When Mr. Lapisla Zuli, a public figure accused of colorist beliefs, agrees to an interview meant to clarify his stance, what follows is far from a moment of accountability. Instead of engaging in honest dialogue, he dodges questions and reinforces harmful ideologies, choosing pride over progress, and prejudice over truth.
Beneath the surface, the film unravels deeper issues, shifting the lens to a society that frequently scapegoats the queer community, weaponizing misinformation, fear, and moral panic. As the public scrambles for someone to blame, the queer community becomes the convenient target.
Blue Party is a sharp critique of performative allyship, societal double standards, and the dangerous comfort people find in refusing to change. It's a mirror held up to the systems that protect ignorance and punish difference, a reflection of how conversations around identity, power, and queerness are often hijacked by those unwilling to confront their own biases.
