Obviously, a school project that could have benefited enormously from a tripod and a decent microphone.

Homo provides audiences with an opportunity to hear first hand accounts of queer people and their families' homophobic experiences. The film maker wants audiences from all kinds of backgrounds to have some perspective and insight into the ever pressing discrimination and general homophobic experiences of a diverse range of queer people. As it turned out the film provoked some strong emotions from school staff. The ambition was to complete a short documentary, Homo to be screened at the school's Arts and Technology Showcase. The Head of the Art Department informed Issie that her film had 'no artistic merit' and that it would be 'offensive to families and the school community, who would be attending the evening, therefore may not be screened.
