What is Opposing Counsel?
Opposing Counsel, is a short film that combines yoga and law to answer a central question: can authentic love sustain itself within systems that measure value by public optics? In short: I want to create every gay man’s worst nightmare - a one night stand enters into your everyday life - this one day comedy of errors will be well received in all queer communities who are always in a fight for visibility in cinema.
Goal:
To raise $20k to cover filming expenses.
