Please forgive the relatively low-grade quality of this pilot episode. We recorded it at home via Zoom, which felt right because of the personal subject matter. It was a cold, snowy, winter day, and the film uplifted us. We discussed:

Processing the film together, in real time, while it was still fresh

Being virtually “seen” by the film

Queer isolation

Queer children and their parents

Multi-generational politics of queerness

Transcending time and death

Communication with the deceased

Hope beyond tragic ends
