A queer punk band, the world's biggest music stage and one performance that could spark global controversy — A Song Called Hate is a gripping documentary about music, activism and the courage to stand by your beliefs. Set against the spectacle of the Eurovision Song Contest, the film explores whether one song can become a powerful act of protest.

When Iceland's provocative performance art band Hatari is selected to compete at the 2019 Eurovision Song Contest in Tel Aviv, they find themselves balancing international fame with their outspoken political convictions. Known for their queer identity, anti-capitalist message and uncompromising performances, the band must decide how to use one of the world's largest television audiences. As the competition unfolds, A Song Called Hate follows their journey through music, controversy and the complex intersection of art, politics and human rights.
