ABOUT THE FILM
Home is a feeling, they say, but where is home, when you are not allowed to feel at home even within your own body and mind? What is self when it is constantly displaced and rejected?
In societies generously cultivating and maintaining spaces for heteronormative selves to be performed and almost inherently unaccepting to those different from the widely accepted normal – the weight of being is almost unbearable. Regardless, the fight to break through is fierce!

As I Was Looking Above, I Could See Myself Underneath unveils intimate stories of LGBTQ persons from Kosovo, going through their unceasing search for a safe place that allows them to be.
