I didn't want to categorize Brandon in any way he wouldn't have categorized himself. I don't believe in categorizing. But I don't stick by the labels because desire is pure. If that desire is to dress up like the opposite or same gender or sleep with the opposite or same gender, I think that is very fluid. This story is taking something confusing and scary and tapping into the most intense human connection possible, making a myth.
Myths heal and teach people.
When people come and see the movie, what they are really seeing is how I made a myth out of the story that is truthful. Hopefully by sharing this story, I bring the audience to the next place.
