Message from the directors:
"
This work aims to raise the awareness of what it means to be a part of the
queer community, and was made at a time when people of all sexual minorities
(lesbian, gay, transsexual, intersex, asexual) were starting to make their
voices heard. The inspiration for this film is the constraint that the producers
- who are queer - feel in being labeled as a "minority" and being
differentiated from other people solely on the basis of sexual orientation.
Can one assume that what one cannot see therefore doesn't exist? "Imagine" aims
to inspire just the opposite of that - urging people to think beyond the boundaries
of their normal assumptions. This work is a little message to those who have
not yet thought beyond their boundaries and who therefore might only hurt others
with their insensitivity. "Imagine" attempts to be record of a small
dialogue about issues of gender and sexuality."
