We know the path to finding yourself is not always straightforward, and sometimes finding your place in the world is difficult. That’s why this collection of eight short films seeks to honor the journey to authentic selfhood, in all its messiness, through the stories of diverse characters as they negotiate and renegotiate what defines them. From a teen contemplating his sexuality at church camp, to a man struggling to put on a ‘happy face’ for work each day, to a group of skating enthusiasts learning to share their passion with their community — all these individuals are carving out their space in the world, and we are loving every moment of the process.
