“We have to remain visible. They have to see us, they have to know that we’re not going [nowhere], that we’ve been here ever since God made man and woman, and they have to get over it. I don’t need their permission to exist; I exist in spite of them. I want you to train and teach and love on and create families within my community and gender non-conforming people, so that we can understand that we have a culture, we have a history, we have a reason to be here. We have a purpose. We’re entitled to be loved, and seek happiness, and share that with the people that we care about.” -Miss Major Griffin-Gracy
Trans and nonbinary best friends Cole (transgender YouTube star Ryan Jacobs Flores) and Asterid (Sol Joun) wrestle with goodbyes during their final summer camping trip together. Vale of Summer is an honest and refreshing ode to queer-trans friendship and self-determination.
