About Faygele

Fay-ge-le/feigala/noun. (Origin - Yiddish)

(derogatory) Slang for faggot

At 13, Ari Freed’s world shatters in an instant when, during his Bar Mitzvah celebration, his father cuts him down with a single word: Faygele. The insult deepens the cracks in his fragile sense of self, thrusting him into a battle he never sought. Faygele is a story of survival in the space between tradition, affection and obligation - unraveling the complexities of Ari’s adolescence and the relationships that define him.
