I am a 20-year-old sophomore at Boston University studying Film and Television, who has been making films for over nine years for YouTube.
This film is inspired by my own experience as a gender-questioning individual, and was written, directed by, and starring me for my Production 1 class at Boston University.
This film uses all music with composer permission.
