WERE YOU GAY IN HIGH SCHOOL? | 2019 | SHORT FILM
(Co-Writer, Director of Photography)
dir: Niki Ang

Were You Gay In High School? is the story of two queer, Asian American women who share their awkward, closeted stories from high school. Hannah and Kelly open up about their uncomfortable, coming-of-age moments as closeted teens and find commonalities in their stories while learning about the people they used to be. They reminisce about the boyfriends they didn’t like kissing and the straight-girls who were definitely flirting with them. Told through live action and animation, the stories shared are both cringeworthy and silly; painful and hilarious.
