AND THEN I WAS HERE
TRT 13 min, 2023
Birth as seen through the eyes of a child and their genderqueer parent.
“‘And Then I Was Here’ not only sees them welcoming a new child into the fold, but observes the couple gingerly taking steps into a whole new horizon themselves, making for a fascinating follow-up to Stergiou’s previous short ‘The Act of Coming Out’ ”
