Award-winning Coming Out Short Film: Straight A

Todd Lien imdb.me/toddlien IG: @toddlien_official This is my coming out thesis film from my New York Film Academy MFA Program based on the true story of me coming out to my father. Film Summary: Struggling with maintaining his same-sex long term relationship a secret and keeping up with his image of being the perfect straight A son, Alex must face his father and tell him the truth about his sexuality. Note from Todd: I am grateful for the supporting father I have, but I want to be clear that I know this is not how many people's experiences are like. I just want to share some happy ending story like mine out there for more positivity and hope! The message is that sometimes we need to give our parents a little more credit for acceptance. Hope this video does that for as many people out there as possible!
