Me, The "Other" (2021)
Set in 3 college campuses in Michigan, the film explores the lives of 12 students from diverse backgrounds sharing their personal stories about how they struggle to find their place in a world where they’re made to feel that they don’t belong. Their stories weave together a rich narrative of experiences with racism, sexual harassment, chronic illness, sexual orientation, gender identity, religious prejudice, immigration struggles, DACA challenges, mental health issues, and more. The film is a collection of short stories that reveal a profound commonality despite perceived differences. We are all "others," and it is our shared humanity that makes us truly human.
