</div>
<div><strong>LOGLINE</strong>
</div>
<div>AS YOU ARE is a poetic drama about an interabled queer couple that spends the night together for the first time, and must confront their complex relationships with desire, sexuality, bodily autonomy, and what it means truly to love another person.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>SYNOPSIS</strong>
</div>
<div>“As You Are” is a romantic, identity-based, art cinema film. We’re introduced to a particular day in the 6th month of the relationship between Millie, a young woman with a spinal cord injury, and Piper, a young woman traumatized by her family’s maltreatment of her queerness. The film moves through the night Millie invites Piper to spend the night in her dorm room with her. It deals with the challenges that come with loving someone in a world that doesn’t acknowledge their existence. This film aims to subvert the status quo of what “normal” intimacy looks like and examines what lengths one will go to understand those they love.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>WHY</strong>
</div>
<div>As a multi-organ transplant recipient, I grew up always wanting to see bodies that reflected mine in the media I consumed. I believe this film will be a representation for people who have never seen their stories reflected back at them. As a film committing to providing authentically disabled and queer representation, we are actively looking for people/companies to make the project possible. As a new era of queer and disabled people is coming of age, it is vital that they see their stories of love being told to show their bodies are deserving of love. With films like CODA being ushered into the mainstream, this is the moment that not just disabled stories, but intersectional disabled stories ought to be told.
