Plot summary

Sex is power, and Waseem, a Syrian gay-for-pay hustler seeking asylum in Cologne, wields it like a shield. Keeping his johns at an emotional arm’s length while satisfying their most carnal desires in order to eke out a living, he meets his match in Lars: a kind, affluent professional with a growing personal interest in Waseem. This gripping tale of transactional identity explores the tactical exchange of trust and intimacy in a partnership, and the divisions between immigrants and their host countries in contemporary Europe.

Label Me is one of those films you

Label Me is one of those films you have to see more than once because the protagonists, Waseem and Lars, perform so well to pull the viewer into each scene to the point where you’re no longer watching, but living each scene. So, you miss some of the film. Label Me left me wanting more. But at the same time, I feel the ending was perfect in that it left me feeling hopeful.

A bitter pill to swallow

There are films that don't make it easy, are unwieldy, create little sympathy for their characters. Label Me has two main characters, a German, Lars, and a refugee from Syria, Waseem, both living in Cologne. Waseem offers sex for money, Lars pays. Lars is curious, asks many questions, Waseem, on the other hand, has rules for everything, even for answering questions he demands money. We don't know if Waseem is gay. Label Me is a typical German film in that it torpedoes the viewer with several questions: What does a refugee feel in another country, how does one deal with him, how can he live out his sexuality, find himself? Waseem is rather introverted, carries heaps of aggression, some against himself. But he gradually dares to allow closeness. Unfortunately, that's where this film ends, which is very short at 1 hour. As a German, the intellectual level of the film is very familiar to me. I therefore don't need answers to all the questions the film raises. It has a lasting effect, which is a good sign.
