Outlet

Directed by Leigh Iacobucci2006USA19 mins

This film tells the personal stories of the teenagers who participate in a support group offered by a Bay Area youth organization called “Outlet.” It includes observational footage of their weekly support group and mentoring meetings, providing a glimpse of the challenges they face at school on a daily basis. Interviews with the support group facilitator, a young activist, and a trans teen address the evolution of queer issues as they are taken on by local middle school and high school students within a context now over 10 years old, but still relevant today in many schools.
