it’s so rare to see a queer documentary that captures both the crushing weight of systemic homophobia and the absolute joy of a love that outlasted it all
my tear ducts are totally destroyed but honestly nothing fills my heart more than knowing that despite everything the world threw at us we have always found a way to love each other fiercely and survive.
protection and endless respect to our queer elders always 🤍🌈

I needed something like this as a young gay kid. There was always something about see old gay people that was so heartwarming
As the gay auntie I love this so so so much
Sobbing. Crying. Throwing up
