Put the Brights On (2021)

Put the Brights On interviews four rural Transgender subjects from the Minnesota Lakes Region. The film works against common use portrayals of the rural and life in "the country" as quaint, cute, or dangerous and dumb, often with a sense of humor. Use of found footage, 16mm and Super 8 matched with the contemporary audio track give Put the Bright On a parallel low fi visual/hi fi audio contrast.
