‘sir’ 2020

Directed by chandler pippin

‘sir’ was made after discovering more about my gender identity. By turning a “male” gaze towards myself, I explore my relationship with masculinity and how that affects how I am perceived in the world. The voices of my family reflect a struggle with the idea of coming out to those who I love as well as those around me, as I find some sense of safety in my perceived maleness despite the discomfort and internal strife it may cause.
