This absorbing set of documentary shorts runs the gamut from a Black, queer, and trans writer and artist from Texas, a DJ who has curated a recreation of the Stonewall jukebox from 1969, an aspiring costume designer who visits their island homeland of Guam to make costumes for a children’s theatre and reconnect with distanced parents, the resilience of a Michigan librarian and mother of a transgender child as she navigates the imminent closure of her community library amidst fervent book-banning efforts, an activist who inspired The Trevor Project, a small town that offers a community for trans women, and a lesbian couple inspired by a Time magazine cover
In the docu-short One Story at a Time, Celeste Lecesne candidly shares how he not only escaped the confines of homophobia but combatted it by finding the courage to share his truth with the world. In a seemingly fateful chain of events, an off-broadway solo-show becomes an Academy Award-winning film that ultimately inspires The Trevor Project, the largest suicide prevention lifeline for LGBTQIA+ youth. Now, 25 years later, countless lives have been saved, and Celeste stays the course, inspiring the next generation to have the bravery to claim their truth and continue to change the world, one story at a time.
