This set of shorts spotlights local city artists and highlights the voices of Atlanta.

In the 2020s, Ollie and Zola go to their town’s queer club one night and find themselves unsatisfied with the straight crowd that goes there, the music being played, and the exploitation of the queer community present. Meeting with their friends outside, they discuss wishing they were in the 80s where their club would be an exclusive lesbian bar with a more tight-knit community. After going home for the night, Ollie and Zola turn on an 80s movie and are immediately transported back to their bar, but they have time traveled to the 80s. Confused, they go outside, finding their friends in 80s fashion. Their friends aren't identifying as gender queer like they do in the present day and have a fear of being lesbian in public. Shortly after, Ollie and Zola get harassed by 80s frat boys on the street for holding hands. They realize this is not what they want and that there are highs and lows to being queer in both time periods. They both gain an appreciation for the present moment and are thankful for the progress that has been made in the queer community.
