Gay Giant

Plot

A gay giant can’t hide. This charming coming of age and coming to terms with oneself story, shows us what it feels like to grow up queer in a heteronormative society in the 1990s.

Filled with pop-cultural touchstones from Cher to Laurie Anderson, Jurassic Park to My Little Pony, we navigate both the joy and pain of puberty surrounded by ignorance and homophobia, the anxiety of casual hookups, and pressure to be more macho. How do you love yourself if you’ve learned so well to hate yourself? For all of us who’ve ever felt bizarre, damaged, or strange, we are shown that all is full of love, and that true acceptance must come from within yourself.
