Frameline Talk: Youth on Screens

31 mins

Television is currently on the forefront of queer representation and identity expression and leading the charge are images of young people. Each generation challenges what is taken for granted by the previous. Currently, through the medium of television, ideas of gender and sexuality are being expanded right in our living rooms. We would love for you to be part of this conversation with creators changing the mainstream through the TV screen.

The Frameline Talks series is supported by Variety.
