<div><em>Stevie struggles to support their sister’s gender reveal party, while harbouring a gender update of their own. This charming short comedy pulls back the curtain on gender performance of all varieties, and shines a whimsical light on the stumbling, imperfect, yet loving ways families show up for one another.</em>

</div>
<div>Hello! My name is Jackie Hoffart and I'm the writer and director of the comedy short film "The Reveal"—a story of a non-binary comedian who uses the gender reveal party for their sister’s baby as the opportunity to tell their family that they are transitioning.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The project was selected by prestigious Vancouver-based organization Crazy8s, to receive critical seed funding and in-kind production support. The production completed principal photography in March 2025 in Vancouver, Canada.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are raising funds to support post-production costs, marketing and promotion costs, as well as costs associated with submitting the film for local, national, and international festivals.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every donation is a huge help–whether it's $50 or $500—we are tremendously grateful for your support. We believe it’s more important than ever for trans people to share trans stories that are positive, affirming, and full of love.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Here’s how your support will help us:
