A girl must choose between finding love at a punk show, or her mom’s Avon party.

Some of the fiercest new videos these days are being made by and for young women. In this collection of shorts, girls speak out for themselves and express their hopes and fears around the complex issues they face being queer in a hostile world. In SPACEJAZZEROS, girls who skate discover that space isn’t the final frontier, and in TRESPASS, a girl must choose between finding love at a punk show, or her mom’s Avon party. UNTOUCHABLE explores the struggles between inter-generational partners and the powerlessness felt by youth, while FOUR THOUSAND YEARS OF LEAVING HOME uses biblical and contemporary narratives to explore the reality of leaving home.
