OLD DYKES

Short

CREDITED AS:

A bittersweet romance about two women who have just entered their sixties, Mel and Laurie. This film takes the assumptions many people make about the words “Old” and “Dyke” and turns them on their heads to tell a beautiful story about love, longing, friendship, and grief. In the film, we are celebrating the process of aging and examining the beauty of that. We are choosing to steer into the strong connotations that come with the word "Old" in a culture obsessed with youth, and ask people to join us in considering it through a queer romantic lens.
