The Parade

As a 'tragicomic' blend of Comedy, Drama, and History, 'The Parade' primarily evokes **Humor** through its absurd premise of a homophobic gangster protecting a gay pride parade and the unlikely alliance of ex-war enemies. Deep **Empathy** is felt for the gay couple facing constant abuse and the broader struggle for LGBTQ+ rights in a hostile society. **Sadness** permeates the narrative due to the pervasive homophobia, threats of violence, and the ultimate sacrifice made for freedom. **Anger** is directed at the societal injustice and bigotry, while **Hope** and **Inspiration** emerge from the characters' courage to fight for their rights and the unexpected solidarity that forms. **Anxiety** is present throughout, stemming from the constant danger surrounding the Pride event.
