Two Spirit
Two men dressed as women have captured someone. This 'someone' represents a theme much bigger than them.
*this experimental film is to bring awareness to the dehumanization of those who identify as 2Spirit.

A poetic piece that exemplifies my experience as a 2Spirit individual. I hope this piece speaks where words can't.
