When I first read this story, I was really fascinated by how real the characters were.
I was impressed on how the story reflects real life in most of the LGBT community.
That's why when Alison asked me to direct it, I couldn't say no. I was
more than honored. I believe a story like this should be made
because it truly stands to combat mainstream television stereotypes. In national television
series and in most reality shows, gay men are portrayed as feminine, while lesbians
are shown as masculine or tomboys, which creates the stereotype that all gay men and women
are like that. I was once told, and I quote "Why do they always pick the same people? Why can't
they pick regular gay men and women?" Well, this film does that, it emphasizes that anybody
can be gay, your best friend, your cousin or your uncle. Ordinary people that are no
different than you and I. People with emotions and feelings, that like any other person
seeks love.
This is why I'm asking you to contribute to help make this film. A story
about ordinary gay men and women in real life situations, not the Hollywood version portrait
on television, that both the LGBT and non LGBT communities can associate with.
Help us by supporting and donating
a small contribution that will have a big impact; and thank you for helping a good story
get to the big screen.
