Tender Resistance

An anxious brother delays telling his sister the truth about his upcoming wedding, an uncle takes drastic measures to "make a man" out of his closeted nephew, and a young man reflects on his turbulent teen years and the experiences that pushed him to leave his hometown behind. A powerful collection of shorts about the quiet ways in which we learn to stand up to prejudice and doubt.
