Blossoming
“Love is the flower you have to let grow.”
John Lennon
My short film Blossoming draws from real life events as well as fantasy. My film centers around two Black/African American college age women both being bisexual, as they journey through the stages of being roommates, to friends, to a romantic relationship. The story also explores the middle ground of what it means to come out with one party being accepting while the other is not and, in the end, hoping that acceptances comes from all around. We get to see roommates blossom into a romantic relationship and the main character blossom into her own sexuality and come to accept herself. Although cliché in sense many can relate to this story and it gives representation to Bisexual black/African women who may often feel underrepresented/unseen in films.
