BULLETPROOF: A LESBIAN’S GUIDE TO SURVIVING THE PLOT

Filmmaker Regan Latimer takes an insightful, funny and personal look at queer representation on television and media’s power to shape how we see ourselves.

Determined to uncover why Hollywood frequently "buries its gays," Latimer dives into the issue of disproportionate lesbian deaths in media. Through interviews with TV writers, executives, queer community members, and fans, she unravels this troubling trend. The quest to understand the dynamics behind the stories we watch on TV is both witty and fast-paced, blending original animation and personal anecdotes with in-depth conversations with TV insiders, LGBTQ+ advocates, and passionate fans.

This humorous hybrid documentary highlights the transformative power of positive queer representation in media while chronicling Latimer’s journey of self-discovery and the profound impact of seeing oneself represented on screen.

Join the media revolution and fight back with queer fandom!
