In “The Art of Sin” director Ibrahim Mursal follows Ahmed, who – after coming to Norway as a refugee – has become a renowned artist. After coming out in 2015 Ahmed became the first openly gay man from Sudan, and caused a massive outrage in the Sudanese community. Although the 30-year dictatorship fell by revolution in 2019, homosexuality is still punishable by death in Sudan. Still, Ahmed takes a chance and goes back to Sudan to see his mother again. In “The Art of Sin”, director Ibrahim Mursal has to face his own deeply ingrained prejudice while following Ahmed’s journey. A journey spanning worlds and cultures, art and religion, national identities, genders and love.
