Set my body free | Multifandom

"they paint the world full of shadows. and then tell their children to stay close to the light"
It's very easy to edit hopeful videos and call for everyone to "break free", when you're privileged enough to be comfortable in your own skin and live in a country that, at the very least, doesn't threaten to have you killed or further restrict your basic human rights if you live your true self.
So, while this was very therapeutic on a personal level, i made this video keeping in mind the many, outrageous, anti-trans bills that the US has been passing those last few years, as well as the foul transphobia that is currently permeating british and french politics. Politics that i'm sure would make mccarthy and eisenhower quite proud indeed.

[@Bellsilili]

this is probably one of your best edits. i have chills all over my body .

[@zowho]

thank you lili 💜

[@morganamybeloved]

this is so incredibly touching. i live in russia and situation is getting worse for queer people here lately. lgbtq "movement" is extremist now, also anti trans bills. it's very scary. this edit made me feel safe and remember how much great queer people still out there fighting for their rights and even winning. i believe it gets better even when things go dark, there's still light out there somewhere anyways i got a bit corny, but thank you! really thank you for this beautiful video💞

[@user-gi8pk9uc7q]

It must suck living there!

[@moonwolf3105]

oh my god, crying. What an amazing, beautiful and emotional edit.

[@antascless1490]

Breaking my heart. Especially as my country outlaws any kind of queer presence or support anywhere

[@philosophicalfranklin6212]

No matter what, there are more people that will love and support you, than those that will hurt you

[@Shainira]

This is one of your best videos, so powerful and beautiful. I have no words. I can really feel all the emotions you put into it and it's just so heartbreaking.

[@zowho]

thank you love ❤

[@Silviasi22]

STANDING FOR THE QUEER PEOPLE WHO SADLY NEED TO HIDE!!! #SoProud This video is brilliant, so necessary. My little lesbian heart is craying.

[@musyque1100]

I want to like this a thousand times. I don't remember the last time I was that touched by an edit. Thank you so much for this

[@katecaixlynn6836]

THIS. oh my gosh. this. it hit so deep. the broad spectrum of genres covered.. the different perspectives. the pain and the hope that unites it all. this is a masterpiece. a pledge to queer resistance; a cry for queer liberation. from the bottom of my heart, thank you.

[@-Charline-]

This is such a powerful edit! I can how much you put your heart to make this. You did an amazing job! I love the moment when they all danced slowly, hold each other hands, kissed, hugged all of that, so gently, lovingly. The song and the voice over this whole last part of the edit, made it so dreamy, beautiful to see, hopeful. Even with all the obstacles from others, the backlashes, etc, they're trying to exist and love, as they have the right to do so. Love is beautiful. Everyone deserves to be loved.

[@vikloriot]

I've just had a very long day and I completely broke down watching this. Thank you. It's a tough world for us queer people out there, but I'm so grateful for our culture, our communities. This edit is incredible

[@HelenWheelsUtah]

This was moving and powerful and necessary. Thank you for creating this and sharing it with us. Cheers.

[@zowho]

thanks helen ❤

[@carol___]

No words... truly a emotional and moving edit. Thank you for sharing this with us ❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹

[@MaraSophita]

I feel grateful for how you brought this video to an end. It was both very painful and very beautiful. Outstanding work.

[@mythsandmagic]

This is one of the most beautiful and meaningful edits I’ve ever seen and I can’t thank you enough for making it. This is truely on another level of editing and the message is so, so important. I’m struggling for words to describe just how important it is so just thank you🖤🏳️‍🌈

[@ethanblack7626]

i'm sorry this edit doesn't have more appreciation... u r so talented

[@zowho]

thank you 😊

[@markpngedits]

oh my god? this is incredible and so powerful. amazing work as always

[@suncore598]

So much heartbreak and prejudice. Then a beautiful display of LGBTQ+ love. An absolute masterpiece.

[@isabellab-c5351]

I'm literally crying, this video is so beautiful but its also a reminder of what those before us have had to fight for, and the people and the basic human rights that we still have to keep fighting for. My country only recently lifted the ban on gay marriage, and there are still so many more countries where gay marriage is not only banned, but the very act of existing as a queer person is punishable by death.

[@SunnyVids]

Absolutely beautiful.

[@captnswilson]

Chills, literal chills. This edit left me speechless, I don't know what to say other that it moved me deeply and I'm grateful to you for making this and sharing with us.

[@adele_snicket]

MASTERPIECE 🥺😍❤

[@MultiLotus007]

I am shaking, this is good

[@sofiewauters7539]

Crying. This is amazing.

[@Akisa37]

And yet, there are people -like people that I love and know to be intelligent and kind - who say things like "enough with putting gays in shows" or "seeing gays in pretty much any show I watch is making me hate it more and more" and it pains and angers me so much. The lgbt+ community is just barely starting to express itself, and only in a few countries, so no, give them good representation, let them speak. Once the again, the fear and rejection of minorities, of what's different, of what you don't understand, that is kept unchecked and turns into hate and prejudice. Anyway, strong tribute.

[@takayamija]

this is something very personal, i can't breathe... thank you❤‍🩹

[@alexia5366]

thank you so much, this is beautiful I feel less alone

[@illyanamartinez818]

Although we have come so far when it comes to LGBT+ rights, we still have a long way to go!

[@spencer1605]

Anyone know where the die in footage was from, whether it was fiction or archived footage?

[@lamb_queerlocked]

Hello zowho, first of all, thank you very much for this edit. I had goosebumps while watching it. Would you be so kind an make a list of the movies/shows where the clips you used are from? If there are too much, the main ones/the one you like most would be nice. Thanks! and lots of love from Germany (so sorry for any kind of spelling mistake)

[@zowho]

hi! thank you so much for your comment! it would take a long time to list all of them, it's not that i don't want to, it's just that i don't have a lot of time on my hands right now. however if you make me a list of timestamps with all the shows/movies you'd like to know about i'd be happy to list them for you!! that said i'm definitely making a mental note to create a fandom subtitle for this video! will let you know when i do
