1987 | An LGBT short film | Director's Cut 

THAT TABLE SCENE! the way it’s directed is incredible. It portrays it so smartly and without having to show everything. I love this!

THIS MOVIE IS BRILLIANT OMG so intelligently made - especially the part where Friday is trying to tell her truth to her parents - how shelter and care is taken away - the fears

This was SO good. Most lesbian short films i see lately are poorly acted and directed but THIS was amazing. The music choice, the aesthetics of the film, ugh everything about this was amazing! Keep up the great work :)

God. As a teenage lesbian, I’m so glad that I live in a world and time where my family and friends accept me, and this reminded me of that. Best thing I’ve watched in a while, it was beautiful.

i loved when friday was talking about ex-homosexuals. it made me remember whar i used to think and feel when i was coming to terms with my bisexuality

I WOULD GIVE AWAY ALL MY FUCKING MONEY FOR THIS TO BECOME A FULL MOVIE 😩🖤

i've watched so many lgbtq short flim, none of them can make me feel so good like this! great work

The best thing they got right is how fast lesbians plan their whole life together.

I met a lesbian couple who celebrated their 30th anniversary and they started dating in 1987. They shared their struggles with dating in those days and I’m so happy it’s more widely accepted now. I myself am just finding that I may be gay myself and seeing all these short films are so beautiful. 💚

I really envy those teenage girls who are sure of their sexuality just I wish I realized mine at that time and didn’t regret what I am now, closeted.😢 Anyways, side aside my drama, I loved the story, the girls were stunning doing their characters.❤️ I hope there’s a sequel of their journey of independence for choosing their happiness.❤️❤️❤️🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

THIS IS SO FREAKING GOOOOD!!! the soundtrack, the scene where she was trying to tell her parents, the whole thing was so amazing!! And it's so cool seen another young person from Perth who loves creating film!!

this film is an absolute art form, I’d say it’s the best lgbtq short film I’ve ever watched and I’ve watched ALOT (cinematically and production wise it’s literal perfection) u are a literal genius

how did ya'll get the vibe sooo right!!!! Amazing film

thanking my lucky stars that i was involved with this, even if it was small. you are incredible my friend.

Hey guys, just wanted to expose Izzy Kerrigan for calling me a lesbian. Multiple times during filming she said I was a lesbian. I will not tolerate this kind of slander upon my good heterosexual name.

I LOVE THIS IDC IF THIS ISNT A “REAL MOVIE” ITS NOW MY FAVORITE MOVIE EVER

This is for real the best short film I've ever watched in my entire life!!

This is so intense and vivid but at the same time not screaming the message in your face that table scene was absolutely phenomenal; you chose to show the fears of coming out that you were so close and then the terror of losing everything and everyone you care about if they don’t accept you. You didn’t go about it as in screaming in the audience’s face but you made it obvious enough to show some real emotion. The way they kept trying to show who they really were but were unable to get through to anyone. I love everything about this. The music, acting, clothes, props. It’s amazing how you went about everything. The order of things was delivered great, even if it’s not in chronological order it still shows how they met and how they came to be in love without making the tension too high between everyone. I particularly liked how I got to see that she was friends with people that were making fun of her but she didn’t blame her because she accepted it as the social standard to like men and since they both didn’t she knew they would be hated if they were both openly out as in love so they had to hide their feelings for each other because she knew it would ruin everything she worked for all they needed to do was wait a bit longer and they wouldn’t need to hide anymore.

this short film was hands down the best i’ve ever seen!!

oh my god this short film is just incredible!!! one of the best short films i've seen on youtube

this was genuinely so amazing. the aesthetic of the film is so beautiful and the scenes are beautifully shot. i love it so much and it’s amazing how accurate it is. characters people can actually relate to instead of character that don’t portray teens at all.

I’m so glad I stumbled on this short :,)) Everything was so charming and the editing was really well done and suited the story so well. The dinner scene was by far my favorite, I really enjoyed how everything was set back when Friday simmered down and ignored the topic was *chef’s kiss*

i've been desperately searching for this movie for the past hour, i'm so glad i found it again, oh my god, i'm sobbing

AHHH IZZY I'M SO HAPPY I CAN FINALLY SEE THIS FINAL CUT- IT'S AMAZING!!!

I loved this, the choices made to portray certain emotions like THE TABLE SCENE are just amazing, I wished i had this when I was younger

this is sooo good! the cinematography is amazing! especially the table scene and the portrayal of their experiences woww. also liked the little drawings

didn't expect to cry today but here we are, haha. this is so good!

The direction of this film was great! It's the little things that made this film

Madre de dios, THIS IS SO GOOD Recommending this to all of my friends, the story telling, the EVERYTHING in just 13 minutes Greetings from Argentina!

The aesthetics in this are honestly better than anything I've ever seen. Please continue to pursue film you're incredible

I love this short film!!! I really wish they would make another, and that's probably because I'm too invested into the two main characters lives, I wanna see what happens next💗💛💙

oh my god okay no words i usually dont really watch short films but this is one of the best ive ever seen snd i know you probably read that a lot or wont take this as much but truly everything here was so professional and i really think that you could become a big director

THIS IS SO GOOD!!! The directing, acting camera work, even the costumes and lighting are incredible! This has to be made into a full movie

Awesome Iz. Such a beautiful narrative. Have a feeling this is just the beginning. Remember me when you need a location scout. Xx

THIS IS GORGEOUS i love your style, the story writing, the characters, the aesthetics, everything!!! this short film needs more attention, it's so good!!! keep making films, you'll go a long way!!!!!

I’ve watched a lot of lgbt short films and this one will forever be my favourite, like, the way it is just so perfect.

Am I crying? yes. Am I in love with this? yes. Its definetly the sorta tragic sapphic love stroy (it's the 1987s come on) and yet it's so sweet and happy and omg THIS WAS WONDERFUL!!

omg this is like the best wlw short film i’ve ever seen.

Izzy, this was the best wlw film I have ever seen, ever. I appreciate all the hard work you have put into this, ❤️

Love this so much !!!!! The TALENT

I have watched this short film an unreal amount of times, and it is genuinely one of my favorite things in the world. the acting, aesthetics, and directing were all absolutely amazing!!

I stumbled across your channel completely by chance. And I am very thankful for that. This was such a wonderful and beautiful surprise of a short film. You have such a great sense for compelling storytelling and strong characterization. I legit cried tears of sadness in the middle and then tears of joy at the end (Bowie helps in that regard, too lol). I'm absolutely looking forward to catching up on your other videos and can't wait to see what you have in store next. Thank you so much and all the best!

Great portrayal of how difficult it was to be who you are in those times. Really loved the car movie scene and when Friday dances in excitement, with the music and acting filling me with happiness. A really nice heartfelt short film!

I LOVED THIS SO MUCH I'VE NEVER SEEN SOMETHING LIKE THAT, CONGRATULATIONS I- I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY, JUST A MASTERPIECE

OML I LOVE THE END having heroes by bowie made the scene magical 😭❤️

That was one of true best director’s cut I have ever seen, it is simple and delicate and it shows so much in 13:13 minutes that I am pleased that you did this.

THIS IS SO GOOD WOWOWOW !!! truly!! the acting, directing, interpretations, just everything was absolutely wonderful

G r e a t film. Added to my watch list a couple months ago and getting to it just now and it didnt disappint 👏👏 the table scene was great, but i also loved when the girls were dancing, there was no one, and then there were people again.

THIS IS SUPER GOOD. THANK YOU FOR BLESSING ME WITH THIS

My god it's so amazing, love it! And at the first time got a little bit confused by the time jumps😅

THIS IS AWESOME. immediately shared with my friends!!!

THIS WAS SO AWESOME. all of you are so talented and you did such an amazing job ! 🫀🫀🫀

Just saw this at media perspectives 2022 and it is amazing, that was edited in a different order and I think I prefer it a bit more but this is still amazing. Compared to the others this had a different thing to say to the others Entries, you did a really good job. I’m saying at an year 11 student but Atleast 10k people agree so good job

I Love this film so much!!! I've never seen a short film be so sad and happy and nostalgic at the same! Also friday's jacket is just

Okay, I just want to say that it's SO GREAT and I absolutely LOVE IT, that's it

I loved it! This short film made me laugh so loud and think about some thoughts that come to my mind recently. It was perfect thank you.

DAMN, THIS WAS GOOD!!!! I cheer you and congratulate you! Great story, acting and style! Loved it 👏👏👏

This is possibly the best amateur queer short film I've ever seen, honestly, my most sincere congrats!!

thats so incredible, really great, congrats❤️ i got an inspiration for a fanfic from this, yall did a AMAZING work!

J'adore ! Merci, c'est un super film ! C'est hyper intéressant, la façon de filmer, les musiques, tout est génial. Bravo 👏👏👏

This one might be the best one yet that I've seen

I absolutely just love the overall vibe of this whole shortfilm! I love how Friday has such a rock n’ roll style and a little bit punk too, and then Debbie is just a big ball of sunshine! This will stick with me for a long time. Especially the table scene. I have fears that it’s going to be like that too. Definitely my favorite lgbtq+ shortfilm!

That was so good! omg thx so much, amazing work 😍🤩🌟❤️💜

GREAT short with the 80s vibe, the acting and the music!! Takes me back to my younger years of exploring and coming out. The table scene felt so real and blew me away. Congrats to everyone involved in the making of this🥰👌🏻 ps. Great to see that there were already those Dyson hand dryers back in the days. Cant remember those lol 🤣

oh that table scene was incredible watching it physically hurt this entire thing is wonderfully executed

I love everything, and i mean every. single. thing about this film. I've seen so many short lgbt+ films but this one is by far my favorite. The direction and the cinematography, the whole vibe is fucking incredible. I can't praise it enough. Oh, what I would give for this to become a full length movie. 7:45 this scene is so impactful. The generic-ness of the background wallpaper gives it this weird, unsettling nostalgic feel that reminds me of my childhood. What adds to that is the faces being blurred out, like it's some distant memory/trauma that Friday is burying inside after she's left. I can relate painfully close to that. Idk that's just how I enterpretted it. Maybe you just chose an old looking wallpaper and called it a day lmao.

Oh man I'm so glad I came across this! This hits in a way a lot of other sapphic media doesn't for me. Really phenomenal job on all fronts - acting, editing, directing... everything. Thank you for sharing it! 💖🌈

Loved it!!! RU-vid suggested it to me, gladi it did!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️❤️❤️

this was so good oh my god it was so well shot the table scene the bus stop scene oh my god

wow. this is absolutely amazing. it really captures everything. this is so well made and written. love this. the 80’s theme is so accurate. my favorite lesbian film by far.

I loved the whole thing, it's so wonderful. I cried a bit ngl
