The film discusses topics of, exclusion, sexual identity, white supremacy, and racism in the LGBTQ+ community. These individuals show light to a topic thats been hidden under the rug and in most cases treated as joke. The subjects tell us their stories in a personal level as a person of colour in a LGBTQ+ community.

Hey! My name is John Dela Cruz! I am currently a 3rd year film student in Sheridan College. I hope that one day I’ll be working in the entertainment industry doing boom op or a recordist. I’m open to what the future has in hold of me as long as I am happy.

My name is Sebastian Contin, I just recently graduated from a bachelor’s degree in Urban & Regional Planning at Ryerson University. In my free time I love to read about history and culture, listen to music and learn new languages. Traveling is probably my favorite thing in the world aside from Mariah Carey
