Mustard (LGBTQ Short Film)

Mustard is a LGBTQ lesbian / bisexual short coming of age story that deals with how hard it can be to accept the changes, big and small, that life sometimes throws at you.
Subtitles: English (Portugese & Swedish is coming soon!)
Grace, a middle-aged recently divorced Chinese-Canadian, has worked at a bistro for over 20 years doing the same thing. She finds it hard to accept her boss' suggestion of changing her way of grinding mustard seeds, so to avoid this Grace accepts a compromise in training Beverly to help her increase the mustard output. Struggling to embrace the many changes in her life, Grace might have just found the one person to help her find peace with them.
This was my finals project at Vancouver Film School. It started out being over 10 pages long, with several locations, and 2-3 shooting days. Due to different school rules and some other lame things, we had to cut it down to about 7 pages, one location, and one shooting day. It was hectic as hell and completely bananas, but somehow we made it work.
Thanks so much to everyone who supported me in the making of this. Thank you to the fantastic cast, the crew (my amazing classmates), and to the people who contributed to our indiegogo campaign. Without any of you Mustard would never have happened.
A special thank you to my partner in crime, Evelina Saulo, who pitched me the idea of this story and also wrote it. You are the best friend and working partner I could ever wish for.

Really good to see older women featured. I was beginning to feel only young/slim/hip/long-haired lesbians were thought relevant. TY for the representation. Well done.

[@dacemuhammad659]

My sentiments exactly this is encouraging and very sweet

[@lindamorse7463]

@Grady Rowen Why would you hack her account? And then advertise it? That is stalker behavior as well as disrespectful, imo.

@@lindamorse7463 Thanks for your love, care and support for LGBTQ's. The richness, beauty and depths of love can only be fully experienced in a climate of complete openness, honesty and vulnerability. I will love to connect with you.

[@robyn828]

Love the blooming friendship to possibly romance between two women who have totally different cultures, life experience and outlook of life. And the subtlety of messages in this short film. Really enjoyed viewing it. Keep up your good work 😄

[@blueashke]

Aw, Louise it's lovely! You don't get enough of this age new finding their way stories. I didn't want it to end!

[@chiffreagathe8809]

[@mberning1]

What a wonderful film. Thank you.

[@Laffingrl]

I loved this film and the beautiful,subtle way it ended. It was romantic and not a single kiss was exchanged. Bravo!

[@talastra]

It pleases me how Beverly makes me think of Jamie Lee Curtis.

[@barb2435]

change is hard for some,,,like me,,,,thank you ;)

[@julianaocampo9150]

Estoy encantada! ❤️🌱

[@dibaldgyfm9933]

When Grace says "You must leave now" it is a serious, sad moment, we can feel her pain, even if the movie is just a short, we come to know that Beverly understands that she has spoken so gravely, so overwhelming that she must leave Grace to catch up - and then come back. I guessed that the 10 page script was shortened here, mostly here, perhaps also at the beginning.

[@celeniarosa5232]

Muy buen corto, deben hacerlo una película 😍, besos desde República Dominicana 💪🇩🇴

[@jaquelincolon2266]

I didn't really get a dating vibe. Just a friend vibe

[@tamuramariana]

I totally think it could become a movie! Try to expand the script over 10 pages! How come Portuguese as 2nd subtitle language? Let me know if I can help with Italian, since you're already sorted it out in my mother tongue!

[@CMCLC]

So cute!

[@vaniaregiamotamagalhes6076]

Amei! Gratidão.

[@nancyrifo4928]

Muy bueno

[@Nirmalafernandesdcc]

Is there part 2?

[@LG-cz6ls]

Great to see you achieve so much with such limitations and a short time frame. Well done to you and the entire crew. And nice to see old farts like me, not just the young 'uns. Still think mustard is evil stuff, though! ;)

[@LKSFilms]

Hehe, yeah mustard really isn't great. I'm glad you think so! I just feel like we have way too many coming of age stories about young people, but they really could happen at any point in life and to anyone.

[@LG-cz6ls]

@@LKSFilms Absolutely true. I know too many people who felt they had to comply with social norms in their younger days and be nice little str8s with their spouses and 2.4 children. Your film was a refreshing change from the teen angst. Another theme often ignored is that we never stop having to come out, it isn't a one-off event. Anyway, I hope you and ESS are well and you continue to look after each other and entertain us.

[@LG-cz6ls]

Entertain and educate. Sorry, minor brain fart!

[@mariellenabuco5714]

Eu aceito um longa metragem 😊💜

[@demonincabare4337]

Bello film 💕💕🌈🧘‍♂️🌹watch from Italy 🇮🇹. Where's the part 2?

[@jinnefercorvera1133]

Hey!..awesome,,,is that the end !what happened next?

[@dibaldgyfm9933]

You must create a continuation in your mind, after all it is just fiction. But I totally get your state of mind, because I am moved, deeply moved.

[@preetkalsi4413]
