Interracial dating is one of those touchy subjects people tend to tip-toe around for fear of offending someone, but not Moguldom Studios, which is gearing up to release a new docutainment film exploring just that, titled “The Swirl.” According to a news release:
The Swirl tackles societal and cultural issues relating to interracial dating, asking the question; is it the new trend or still taboo? There was a time when interracial dating was a taboo practice that could lead to physical harm or even death. Today it seems to be of greater acceptance as with celebrity power couples Kanye West and Kim Kardashian or Ice-T and Coco. The Swirl takes a comedic look at this serious topic by digging into the cultural shift in attitudes around interracial relationships. The Swirl unveils the real-life conversations folks are having in the shadows on the subject that has finally been brought to light in this enlightening and entertaining documentary. Speaking to men and women on both sides of the debate, the feature length documentary delivers honest and hilarious dialogue on interracial dating by comedians such as Esther Ku, Rodney Perry, and Reggie Jackson. The film dares viewers to take a hard look at their own perceptions. Through in-depth interviews, expert commentary, comedic conjecture and surprising statistical data, the film covers everything from self-hate and racism to the concept of love being colorblind.
“The Swirl” will be released on May 27, 2014, with the DVD and digital download available for purchase on Amazon.com, Google Play, iTunes and moguldomstudios.com, but for now check out the trailer below and tell us what you think.
