FORBIDDEN: UNDOCUMENTED AND QUEER IN RURAL AMERICA Premieres at Outfest 7/12

Sisters Unite Productions and Pony Pictures are honored to announce the world premiere of FORBIDDEN: UNDOCUMENTED AND QUEER IN RURAL AMERICA. The poignant documentary will screen at Outfest Los Angeles, at 5:00 pm, July 12, 2016 at the DGA Theater Complex. For months, the presumptive Republican nominee, Donald Trump, has consistently preached damaging rhetoric towards immigrants.

Forbidden fights back against these destructive and ill-informed narratives. Director Tiffany Rhynard, producer Heather Mathews and activist Moises Serrano humanize the issues and demonstrates how a loving family has the power to combat the destructive oppression of entire groups of people.

Moises Serrano is one of thousands of young people growing up in the United States with steadfast dreams but all the cards stacked against them because of their status or sexuality. When Serrano was just a baby, his parents risked everything to flee Mexico in search of the American dream. FORBIDDEN to live and love openly as an undocumented gay man in the country he calls home, Serrano saw only one option-to fight for justice. The film chronicles Serrano's work as an activist traveling across his home state of North Carolina as a voice for his community, all while trying to forge a path for his own future.
