Out in the Silence
Love collides with hate in small town America
Directed by Dean Hamer, Joe Wilson
Produced by qWaves.com
A documentary portrait of a small town confronting its own prejudices through the courage of two LGBTQ+ individuals, balancing warmth and hope against entrenched social tension.
There may not be any secrets in a small town, but there is an expectation of silence. In A Town Called Oil City, the return of a native son to announce his same sex wedding and help a gay teen who is being tormented at school offers a chance to change the way things have always been done.
