Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Released amid 2024-2025 anti-trans legislation waves, the film weaponizes 'proof of concept' format as its own political statement: give queer stories resources or watch them burn.
Filaseta shot this in a single day with natural light only; the 'false utopia' government building is actually a public library, which the crew found deliciously ironic.
