Safety State

Directed by Jeanette L. Buck, Rani Deighe Crowe

Cast: Stephen Woosley, J.R. Jamison, Alan Tyson, Katy Lynne Wolfe, Larry Beck

In the dystopian near future, a gay and a lesbian couple form an unlikely friendship as they flee the midwest for safety in New England. As rights are being rolled back and travel bans are going into effect, Shay and Quincy decide to leave their home in Ohio and travel East to a safety state where it is safe and legal to be queer. They meet up with another couple, Jacob and Michael, so together they can pose as straight married couples. Quincy takes an instant dislike to her new “husband”, Jacob, as she resents depending on the men and pretending to be straight. As they face different threats on their journey, they form an unlikely friendship.
