When you let people speak for themselves in regards to their own experiences surrounding identity, you get extremely illuminating insight as to just a single aspect of the larger group. This short film gives Henry such a great voice and when his speech is intercut with various frames of words and a sort of queer definition for those terms, it becomes a powerful “I Am Here” sort of statement. Even to me, an AMAB nonbinary person who primarily presents masculine, I found this incredibly affirming and moving.
