The way the gay man sits next to Kena in silence speaks so loud.Black lesbians in colors especially in pink!!!
AFI 2018: film #17“something real”super cute and the aesthetic really worked, it was vibrant and easy to get into with more serious storylines mixed in really organically. i think some people might be expecting too much from it, but for a sweet and simplistic movie this was really enjoyable
