“Two Eyes” — whose title references some Indigenous peoples’ beliefs about multifaceted gender expression — explores passion, gender, art, and the found families queer people often find themselves forming. Three timelines are interwoven into a cinematic triptych: In 1868, a young artist travels to Montana to paint the wild, untamed land to chase a new “muse.” In 1979, a young photographer is forever changed when a bold foreign-exchange student alters his perception of the world. And in 2020, a young trans musician tries to take his life in a moment of utter despair and hopelessness before connecting with an inspiring trans non-binary therapist.
