I’ve known I like girls since I was 10 years old. I came out to my mom a year later, my friends a year after that, and everyone else a year after that, which is absolutely crazy, because I live in the Middle East. I never let myself consider it an act of bravery, because that meant admitting that there’s something to be scared of, but in all honesty, if there’s anything universal about the queer experience, it’s fear, whether it be justified or not. Maybe I’ll never be unafraid, but I might as well be happy.
This movie made me cry. There were some really good shots, namely the blurring trees, the waterfall kiss, and all the gore. The talking hamster really got to me. I need to get away from my hometown. I really, really do.
