Bad Lesbian
When she was a sophomore in college, Olivia Muse endured an emotionally abusive relationship with her first girlfriend. Four years later, Olivia still can’t help but wonder: “Did that happen to me because I’m a bad lesbian?” And why isn’t anyone talking about abuse in the queer community?

When she was a sophomore in college, Olivia Muse endured an emotionally abusive relationship with her first girlfriend. Four years later, Olivia still can’t help but wonder: “Did that happen to me because I’m a bad lesbian?” And why isn’t anyone talking about abuse in the queer community?


Now, Olivia is tired of the silence. Through documenting her own recovery, Olivia challenges the narrative of abuse, empowers other survivors, and tries to motivate change in a community from within.


What our screening reviewers said: "Why don't we talk about this?"

"You must show - the narrative of relationship abuse needs a reset!"
