Director Statement

Growing up gay in the Southern United States, Nell Scott's "Boy Don't Make Me Cry" is a declaration of acceptance and self-love! Even in 2023 our community still faces politicians pushing anti-LGBTQIA+ legislation into law (i.e. Florida's 'Don't Say Gay' bill, Tennessee's Senate Bill 3, and HB0578 banning gender confirming therapy to minors). NOW it is more important than ever that our community celebrates its diversity and perseverance.
