LGBTQ students share their coming out stories

About This Movie

This 2019 documentary dives into the personal narratives of six LGBTQ students from the University of Portland. The film takes its time, allowing each individual to share their coming out stories, and you can really feel the weight of their experiences. The tone is raw and honest, with moments of vulnerability that resonate deeply. The pacing feels genuine—there’s no rush, just a real-life unfolding, making it easy to connect with each student and their journey. What stands out is how it captures the diverse feelings tied to acceptance and the complexities of identity. The absence of a named director gives it a grassroots vibe, almost like a collection of intimate conversations rather than a polished production.
