Just Because I Am takes the viewer through the inspirational journey of an LGBT youth group, led by an enthusiastic gay mentor, who together give a response to homophobia by creating a performance on love, respect and tolerance. While experiencing the transformative energy of art and the empowering effects of self-affirmation, these youngsters also face aggravating homophobic reactions unleashed by their collective coming out in this traditionally conservative (USA-Canada) border city.
A film by Gabrielle Pescador and Juan Javier Pescador. A Pescador Arte, LLC and Windsor Pride Community Production. Music by Julie Leadbetter.
