Six

This fast-paced documentary is funny, poignant, provocative, and always powerfully real. 'Six' features a diverse collection of individuals telling six-word stories from their own deeply personal experiences of being LGBTQ.  The stories are woven together to create a spoken-word poem of what it means to be human, gay or straight.

Six has a run time of 12 minutes and features over 100 stories by 43 LGBTQ individuals ranging in age from
19 to 86.

The six-word story genre evolved from a legend about Ernest Hemingway in which he was challenged to write the shortest possible story.
He responded with "For sale: baby shoes, never worn" 
winning the bet in 6 words.
