Imagining a world without borders, walls and boxes, is incredibly hard to do. Luckily, we have art to help us out.
This movie was a way of coming together with queer artists, sharing feelings of hope, longing and pain.
This dreamy, fluid film invites you into the world their ideas about societal gender norms, belonging and mental health. Within their music and spoken word they reveal new worlds, with more possibilities, flexible and without borders.
