Femme is a short film about Carson, a gay twenty-something looking for love on all the wrong apps. After being rejected by an online hook-up for being too “femme”, Carson embarks on a hilarious journey towards self-discovery and acceptance by way of a manic existential crisis and a drag queen fairy godmother. Set in Hell’s Kitchen, the epicentre of New York City gay life, Carson must confront his own notions of masculinity and gender performance within the LGBTQ community and beyond.
