@@aliciamai I'm glad you did include it because it probably wouldn't have been in my recommended or even if it was I probably wouldn't have clicked it you if was lgbt...
I'm a guy (a straight one even) this was super cute, there's only one thing i found unrealistic about it.... The cat staying on that characters shoulders as long as it did.

wow...the cinematography, the storyline, the way the film misleads the anonymous texter until the end, everything about this is beautifully made. You have my full support
I was literally in a discord call with someone while watching these, we were looking for a couple of LGBT short films. I came across this and was said to my friend.. "This isn't even an LGBT Short Film." right before it got to the part where it was the female instead of the male. I like this, very creative, impressive acting and a well-directed film. I am proud of the effort that was put into this!
Gender,pronouns,sexuality and all of that doesn’t change a damn thing because of the fact that all stars shine the same all eyes see the same and all hearts beat the same Be yourself Be unique and Be kind ❤️🏳️🌈❤️🏳️🌈
I've been out as bisexual for about 3 years now. That's insane. I'm 14, I came out to myself at 11 and to the people around me at 12. I know I'm young, but I know this is who I am. Videos like this make me feel so proud to be part of this community.
I'm 11, and I recently just realized I have been Bi, so reading this made me feel like I'm not alone! I always question myself as to why I knew so early, but atleast I know that somebody out there is the same! 🏳️🌈
Lol same, Came out to myself and my friends at 11 as bi. Still currently closeted to my parents tho. Edit: Came out to my mum! She supports me and told my step father behind my back lol. He supports me too! Hope everyone can have as supportive of a family as I do!
I read the book and yeah it does have those vibes. For example her thinking the person she is texting is a boy is like Simon thinking the person he is e-mailing is a guy from the theather club
for those who dont get it: as the girl texts 'bored' she imagines what they will look like. since she is biased to being straight, she only imagines the person as a boy. When they meet up, she doesn't know how to feel that they are really girl. That is also why the person didn't want to meet up, because they were afraid that she would see it's a girl, and not want to be with her.
I love this a lot. It portrays heteronormativity in such a real way. I love that Tiered had a moment of panic when she found Bored was a girl. It's a very real response and I'm glad you took the route of her excepting Bored for her real self. This was an amazing film, great job.
When I saw this i didn't understand why it said LGBT and I thought the person who wrote on the table shared the number that's why it showed a lot of people texting but then I seen the end and..... Well you know I love it 👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Oh my goshhhh, I absolutely love this. The fact that she was imagining different kinds of people to fill in the question of who she was talking to, and the fact that it was the person she least expects to be, made it so beautiful!!! The acting is also amazing, they act so naturally, I love how in the ending there was an awkward silence where 'bored' feared that she would be rejected but instead 'tired' was just a little confused, but was happy. Overall this is a a masterpiece ^^
This is so amazing! It needs some awards! This is an amazing plot! Its great how excepting she is! Amazing job on everything! The film work! The acting! The everything!
Incredible work my friend!!! Genius idea using loads of different male actors representing how she was thinking of all the possible people her mystery crush might be~
This is so underrated, oh my freaking god. The cinematography, the whole atmosphere it created.. I'm so thankful this was made and I stumbled across it
Great job, I have to say. The mounting expectations, the different boys of the imagination. I've been young once and I've had penpals that became girlfriends, and I still remember the excitement before the first "real life" encounter. OK, when I was young, you had to wait weeks for a message, not minutes, but still, the excitement is the same. Great work with the filming, as well. Keep up the good work, you're on your way!
I was so confused that i had to rewatch it. Anyway, when id watched it for 2nd time and really understand the film it made sense. Nice thinking, i really loved your video!
This was a sweet and smart short, I enjoyed it every much. Felt very light hearted and I like that she was talking to another female instead of the expected male.
I’m bi but will never feel the same way I do around girls when I’m with a guy girls give me butterflies and make me blush and smile till my cheekbones hurt but around boys I’m like :/
ooo fire video! How you tackled this topic was super creative and cool. It turned out great (especially the lowkey sound design I c u). You should submit this one to a festival. It’s that good. Keep it up Alicia!
what a wonderful film to start a new decade on. You have an amazing artistic vision and the story is absolutely adorable! I hope to see more of your work soon, it warms my heart.
Alicia- You wrote: "...my belief that we fall in love with people for who they are, and there are no boundaries or restrictions on love and you shouldn't ever hide or be ashamed of your feelings." This resonates with me, deeply. I am transgender; I transitioned at age 59, two years after the death of my wife. So I spent 28 years as the husband in a very happy, very conventional marriage, and now, at age 63, I am in a life-partnership with another transgender woman. It turns out that, at least for me, the two relationships feel identical. I think maybe love exists for it's own sake, and gender is less important than most people make it out to be. Thank you for making this film, I loved the brief scene where Violet is cuddling with her cat while trying to text someone on her phone! I've lived with cats for much of my life, and that's what they do: always trying to distract you from whatever work you are trying to get done, and I love them for it.
Wow i loved it !!!! It is really well made and cute !! It reminds me of love simon (and i really liked this movie too so)… your film really represent the fact that love is just love and this is beautiful !! Thank you ! :) :D
GUYS... the response to my first short film has been surprisingly amazing!!! you are all SO sweet

That's the lesbian way to go.
Nobody is going to talk about the girl in the background at 2:53 that is what you call art
LAZO HQ XD
LMAOOOO THANK YOU FOR POINTING HER OUT
I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE WHO SAW THAT, I WAS SO CONFUSED HAHAHAHA 😂
LAZO HQ 😂😂😂🤣
I saw it...but,I didnt really care
In case any one was confused- All those different guys are the people she thought she was talking to. It ended up being a girl she fell for.
people didn’t get that???
Emma Vaughan I had literally absolutely no idea
At first, I was like, “wha” but at the end, I realized it-
Emma Vaughan it’s because they didn’t describe it in a good way

The way she ran at 3:13 😂

This gives me Love, Simon vibes. It's good to see people actually embracing who they are.
I loved that book!
Seriously, I was thinking the same thing!!!!
YES, LOVE THAT BOOK AND MOVIE!!
Same

So all this time she thought she was talking to a guy, but she was actually talking to a girl? This is quite genius lol
Leonard Smith the diff race too! Plot twist🔥❤️
@Depressed Bitch me.
lol girls talk to me thinking I'm a boy but I'm actually a girl and they got disappointed when I say "I'm a girl" is it weird?
Leonard Smith this comment is so confusing but I love it
They got this off of love Simon

The awkward silence when she realized she had been talking to a girl was so intense🙄

Right like the silence was so loud
I wouldn’t have expected the twist if the video wasn’t labeled as LGBTQ+ lol
Great job btw

Lol same, Came out to myself and my friends at 11 as bi. Still currently closeted to my parents tho.
Edit: Came out to my mum! She supports me and told my step father behind my back lol. He supports me too! Hope everyone can have as supportive of a family as I do!
Anyone else getting "Love,Simon" vibes
I watched that yesterday
Yesss!!
I read the book and yeah it does have those vibes. For example her thinking the person she is texting is a boy is like Simon thinking the person he is e-mailing is a guy from the theather club
I kinda wanted it to be the friend and not sone else.

Me 4!
Me fem.

what happened after?
gay has entered the chat
the all time keep saying "where the girl at,it's almost end" 😂😂😂😂 this short film got me👏.
0:40 i felt that bro her face expression explains it all
:(❤️
This is like Love Simon 2.0 and I’m living for it
the relief on bored when tired said "tired" and stretched her hand out gives me so much joy omg.
for those who dont get it: as the girl texts 'bored' she imagines what they will look like. since she is biased to being straight, she only imagines the person as a boy. When they meet up, she doesn't know how to feel that they are really girl. That is also why the person didn't want to meet up, because they were afraid that she would see it's a girl, and not want to be with her.
This is lesbian love, Simon
And I’m here for it
I'm a little confused are all the guys her imagining who she is talking to? or am I just dumb?
noo youre not dumb that's whats happening yes :))
@@aliciamai oh ok thank you
