    i normally don't comment but theres so much i have to say about this short film. you've created a film that felt like it was made for me. an asian american college lesbian who has had conversations like this and also watched the ending go badly. this is the happy ending i wanted so desperately and when have i ever seen a happy ending on screen. the casting, two women of color, people who look like me falling in love and in a setting so familiar too. a college party where everything is possible and also nothing is certain. and finally, the vulnerability of it all and also the strength. these characters are comfortable in themselves and their identities. i've followed you for five years and from your quick skits to this film your videos have been a part of my identity. this is what i needed as a young queer and what i want now. thank you Alexis

      Use your gift in whatever way feels right in your journey! A spin off series would be a great start especially whn the public want more of the content you are creating to share with the🌏 ➕ Wanting a longer time frame in their request. 4instance the short web series called Dummy would be a good Template 2Start2 Build on2for your own spin off.I mentioned Dummy because it was short series that made the best of its sshort time frames so much seemed longer & peft u wanting more at same time.That should b what u reach for in your artistic film projects.stay blessed,never give up &, apply your imagination to its fullest potential...Greatness of ya mind is in full effect; blossoming in2 a finished project to a TV set or comp near the 🌎 .Keep on keeping.
