Interesting and insightful. What is amazing is the really honest stories from those interviewed who share their experiences of how they feel in the gay community when they don't fit into the stereotype of being white and buffed and young.

It creates a narrative that highlights how people can feel in the community that can be really damaging. Honestly it was a bit hard to watch because it's so confronting, maybe because I'm a white young-ish guy. I had some idea about that this was like for gay men, but this really opened my eyes for what it can be like for some people. It actually made me thing about what it's like when you are older or coloured etc etc.

The documentary is a form of non-fiction storytelling that aims to present factual information, insights, and perspectives on real-world subjects, events, issues, or people. Documentaries can cover a wide range of topics, including history, science, culture, social issues, nature, biographies, and more.
