🏳️‍🌈* A party within a party, this short film celebrates queerness, outsider sensibilities, experimental circus and video art.

Colourful, irreverent, fast-paced and quirky, these hyper-saturated vignettes are a collection of micro-stories; our childhood moments that lead us to who we are now, times when we felt lost but had to pretend to be ok, how we defined ourselves outside of sexual spaces and moments we broke free of stigma.

These alongside other thoughts lead us to this project and to partner up with other Queer Scottish creatives to make a circus film with no splits in it, sorry not sorry.
