This insightful documentary asks how we have come to imagine what life is like for LGBTQ people in rural places—and provides an opportunity to imagine it otherwise.
In Plain Sight challenges "metronormativity" by exploring the lives of LGBTQ+ women in the rural Upper Midwest. This documentary uncovers a surprising reality: contrary to popular stereotypes of rural conservatism, many of these women find safety, support, and happiness in their communities. The film prompts viewers to reconsider preconceived notions about LGBTQ+ experiences outside of urban centers, offering a fresh and uplifting perspective on rural inclusivity.
