The day I was outed by my bank robber dad

Available for over a year

Yassa Khan grew up in Caernarfon, a small medieval town in north Wales with his mum, dad and three brothers. His childhood however was far from normal - his dad was a well-known bank robber who was in and out of prison for much of Yassa’s life. To escape from his sometimes tumultuous life, Yassa turned to films, which he would often rewatch hundreds of times. He's now a film director, and his new short film called PINK is based on 24 hours he spent with his dad after he'd been released from prison. When his dad outed Yassa as gay, it led to a surprising night out on the town for father and son. PINK has just premiered at the BFI Flare LGBTQIA+ film festival in London. Clip of PINK came from Triongl Productions.
