The fourth film in the Center’s Emmy Award-winning Open Dialogues series, Gen QueerZ gives voice to college and university students who are among the first generation to be “out” while attending high school and living at home. Their stories reflect a diversity of gender identities, cultural backgrounds, and academic studies while exploring allyship, threats, and the dynamics of being out at home with family.
Gen QueerZ is the fourth Open Dialogues film to be an Official Selection of the Fort Lauderdale International Film Festival, following Queer Allies, Black Voices | Black Stories, and Stories From the LGBTQ Community. The Suncoast Regional Emmy Awards honored Queer Allies and Black Voices | Black Stories in the Diversity/Equity/Inclusion Long-Form category in 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Open Dialogues: Gen QueerZ is funded by support from The Our Fund Foundation, The Windhover Foundation/Quadracci Family, and the Dara and Jarrett Levan Fund for the Arts at the Community Foundation of Broward.
