Про фільм

When I meet photographer Donna Gottschalk in Vermont, she tells me she has spent her life photographing queer people from working-class backgrounds. She shows me portraits, street scenes captured in the late 1960s, and entrusts me with hundreds of negatives that have never been developed.
