Overview

Execution

The film uses a series of user-generated clips that people uploaded on social media to show their frustration during the lockdown. We open on people trying to distract themselves. Then we see people trying to pass the time. As the film goes on, we gradually see people breaking down and getting emotional. After this, the tone shifts and the user-generated clips turn into those from LGBTQI2S individuals proudly showcasing who they are. This juxtaposition shows viewers that even though lockdown may be hard, coming out is even harder.
