Friday, April 11, 8:30pmIn a culture celebrated for its rich traditions, close-knit families, and strong faith, being Latino and gay, bi-sexual, or transgender is often unmentionable—and frequently unforgivable.
Tal Como Somos (Just as we are) shares the realities of living within a culture where daily life means being torn between love as son, brother, father, friend and stigma, or even exclusion, for being different. This feature length documentary candidly examines the lives of six Latino men, one transgender woman, and the ties that bind them: their families and friends, their culture, religion, education/upbringing, and their experiences as adults. The film showcases their ordinariness and uniqueness while revealing their human-ness as individuals who live and love, wanting to live and be loved for who they are.
