Congratulations!
Thank you for your kind words.
I'm glad you laughed. When I make these little movies I'm trying to find bits of common experience.
Another thing that motivates me to tell stories about what it was like for me is because I don't see the lives of my friends and me on screen. In the 80s almost everyone seemed to have a crappy hourly-wage job, went to the bar every night, played in leagues for fun and dates, and got all their news at the club. But if researchers from outer space looked at movies about butches.... I'm not sure they'd know they exist. There's Queen Latifah in "Set It Off." Another film in the SQIFF Queer Women In Love series, "Stud Life."
What are others?!
