Love Is All You Need? (2016)

This article is about the 2016 feature film. For the 2011 short, see Love Is All You Need? (2011).  
Love Is All You Need? is a 2016 film created by Genius Produced. The film is currently in development, being led by director Kim Rocco Shields.
==Synopsis==
Like its original short, "Love Is All You Need?" turns the table on society, showing an imaginary world where being "" is normal and being "" is taboo. A world where you are only allowed to love through . A world where, instead of gays being the victim of homo-phobic bullying, straight people are the victims of hetero-phobic bullying. 
The film's full story is not officially known, but many hints have been given regarding the main idea of the film. It is known that the film will account several stories from multiple points of view. It will show different stories including victims of different age groups and demographics. The most popular of these storylines is one that features the life of Jude Klien, the star quarterback of the Sparta University american football team. After celebrating a recent win, Jude meets sports journalist Ryan Morris, and the two quickly form a romantic bond. They try to hide their relationship from the rest of the world, but the cold and cruel local priest discovers this secret affair, inspiring her to fervently organize a hateful campaign against the local "hetero”.
Ashley's story will be mentioned in the film as perhaps a news headline for her suicide at the end of the short, but it is unsure whether or not Lexi DiBenedetto will return to the cast, as Ashley died at the end of the short. If she does, she will be representing a different character.
