Closet Doors

About This Movie

So, 'Closet Doors' takes a pretty unique angle on the whole coming out narrative. Rather than just focusing on the LGBTQ+ experience, it dives deep into the impact on parents. It’s quite raw and poignant, really. The pacing allows you to sit with these emotions, hear stories that are often left unsaid. The interviews feel intimate, almost like eavesdropping on private conversations. You get a real sense of the struggle some parents face in reshaping their expectations and relationships with their kids. It’s distinct in how it flips the script and gives voice to those who are usually in the shadows of this conversation. The overall tone is reflective, and it kind of lingers with you after it’s over.
