To share an authentic wlw story that relates to a community of people and that shows the potential of Scottish filmmaking.

by Sophie Forrester in Wishaw, , United Kingdom

Hi. I'm Sophie and I'm 20. Writing has always been my outlet from when I was young, and after leaving high school and taking a college course in creative writing I realised that I could make a career of something I truly loved. Film. Directing is my main interest but writing stories that myself, and many other queer people I've grown up along side have experienced, is where I know I am needed.  

I have worked on two different short films as a runner and I feel I have soaked up enough knowledge to run a set. I have a clear vision for this film and I know what I'm looking for. 

This film has a female, non-binary and queer crew. Which is solely missing in the film industry.

Due to a diagnosis of Epilepsy in 2023, I have been mostly out of work and this is my way of trying to get back into work now that my health is on the mend. 

Any donation that you are able to give will help so much. I've spent two years dreaming of making this film and I know it will be so loved by the lgbtq+ community. 

With love, Sophie x
