Egale Canada: Coming Out

Coming out can be difficult and complicated, and it's not something most cis-gendered, heterosexual people have insight into. To bring attention to this issue, we created a film made entirely of user submitted footage that looks like it's speaking to the challenges of the Covid-19 pandemic. But the film actually highlights the emotional struggles we’ve all had during the COVID-19 quarantine in order to show its parallel with the much more challenging isolation LGBTQ+ people go through when they can’t come out as who they are.
