“The LGBTQ+ person is like an embryo. There is no one to teach them how to survive, there is no one to guide them or direct them on what is right and wrong, how pleasure is supposed to feel.”
This film presents excerpts from my personal life, from childhood memories to maturity – as an analogy for a child who learns the world anew. Accompanied by my friends from the LGBTQ+ community, who tell from their points of view the norms, the challenges and the search for a sense of belonging in the community.
