Short Film : "Tracks" from Frameline @framelinefest #lgbt #love #teamlesbian #lgbtqia


In Tracks, based on true events, a shy and lonely runaway falls for a flirtatious high school basketball player with an overbearing, church-loving grandmother. 

A great film, I love the fact that the actresses can all REALLY act. Compared to the shows and shorts that are being put out there was quality and real work put into this film. This is sadly the truth for so many teens that are learning to be themselves and are coming out younger and younger. The family can't always handle it. I love this and I plan on viewing more from Frameline! Deana Williams

... Don't Live Here

Heart beat tainted
Overheated, so I fainted
Passed out my love
But didn't want to claim it
The ultimate rejection
Blinded by my own perception
Not only my eyes deceiving
Had my mind believing
My whole thought process was leaving
Me
Pain had become the comfort
Prepping myself for the hurt upfront
Open the door, sit on the porch
The flame has been blown; no more light.
The bird has left; taking top flight.
