It breaks my heart to see bullyg not only tolerated, but rried out, by the very people who swear to keep children om you had the opportuny to meet a young gay man such as Charlie, what would you say to him?

Harr, bee when the homophob who bullied you school grow up, often their voic grow lour, angrier.

Unfortunately I doubt relig lears who are vilently agast homosexualy will be moved by slogans or flags when any attempts to promote passn are howled down as brawashg. Films like Gayby Baby and The Language of Love and Holdg the Man aren’t brawashg. A iend told me her grandparents radilly altered their views on homosexualy after watchg my film.

It will give strength and reassurance to those who don’ we keep celebratg diversy, we will eventually eclipse homophob, make their irrelevance plete. Followg a teenage boy who hears about a stack of gay porn hidn across down and then go on a missn to fd (alg wh some bulli along the way).
