Look Like You
While visiting the adoptive family of her eight-year-old biological son, Tara relays advice she gathered from growing up as a queer outcast.
Overview
Tara, an Indian-American woman, finally decides to reconnect with her eight-year-old biological son, Ray, who was adopted by a white couple. As a brown queer birth mother who still experiences othering, Tara is forced to reckon with her choices as she meets Ray, who is bullied at school for being 'different' from his adoptive parents. To make things more complicated, old wounds resurface between Tara and the parents, forcing her to question whether it's even worth trying to be a part of Ray's life.
Look Like You is presented as part of Too Desi, Too Queer, a selection of LGBTIQ+ short films curated by Bagri Foundation London Indian Film Festival.
