Through spoken word, we follow Openi — an introverted, introspective, Chinese-diasporic queer on the cusp of a solar return — as they reflect on the nuances and intricacies of the relationship between their lover and themself.
This autobiographical self-portrait explores themes of lust, idealism, non-attachment, and the notion of the meeting of soul-mates as both an intensely gratifying and autodidactic experience.
This film was written, produced, performed, and executed by QTPOC, API and POC cast and crew in Honolulu, HI.
