Not often do you see lgbt poc representation so the fact that this was actually made in 1985 (i thought it was from the early 2000s set in the 80s for some reason) is shocking, same with the fact that there’s little to no gay trauma shown (a good thing because even today lots of films explicitly show queer hate crimes in a way that can retraumatize queer people). Overall I liked it.
