A sweet and intelligent little mini drama well worth watching
Ever since I first watched "She Makes My Heart Flutter" I've been a big "Soo not Sue" fan and this, their debut series to my knowledge, did not disappoint.
It's a short and sweet slice-of-life romance but it's also so much more than that. It's a show made by queer people for queer people and as such tackles topics that normally wouldn't be addressed in shows like this, or at least not in this way.
Out of Breath is heavily themed around the difficulties of not just coming out to a close circle of friends and loved ones, but to then actually live openly, deliberately and publicly out of the closet.
And it does this from a perspective I've personally never gotten to see before. It explores the struggles of someone who, while generally always having been open to the idea of being out publicly, was in a very secretive relationship for years and now has to navigate a new romance with someone who blatantly refuses to hide their orientation or their relationships.
It's a story about unlearning shame and fear which is often a slow and agonising process which is all too familiar to many a queer person.
So if you're in the market for something light and easy to watch which nonetheless tells an authentic queer story with real sensitivity and intelligence, then this show is for you.
