Were You Gay in High School?(2020)

Were You Gay in High School? is a documentary that follows two queer women as they revisit their teenage years, when they navigated the confusion and secrecy of their sexuality. Through candid conversation, they recount the pressure to conform—kissing boys they didn't love and harboring crushes on straight female friends—while wrestling with their identities in an environment that didn't welcome them. The film captures the universal awkwardness of adolescence filtered through the specific lens of closeted queer experience, blending humor with genuine reflection on how hiding who you are shapes your formative years. It's a intimate portrait of self-discovery delayed, and the relief that comes with finally living authentically.
