Extraordinary Teens: My Gay Life

Overview

Shot over several years, the story of a young boy called Billy growing up gay in 21st century Britain, filmed from ages 11 to 17. Featuring video diaries, we see Billy growing up facing many changes and milestones. With tensions in the family, his mum's health scare, a divorce and an estranged father, we see how those major changes shape Billy as he grows up on camera and tells the story in his own voice. The result is an extraordinary longitudinal documentary about childhood, adolescence, sexuality and family.
