About coming out and coming of age.

In Catch and Release, twenty-one-year-old Lucca looks back on her childhood and adolescence as she comes to terms with both her sexual orientation and her mental illness. When she falls in love with the brilliant and beautiful Adèle, Lucca is forced to acknowledge not only that she is not and never has been straight, but also that her relationship with a teacher in high school was not as harmless as she might have thought.

As a poet, spoken word artist, and filmmaker, Liana Cusmano (Luca/BiCurious George) explores heritage, queerness, and mental health. Liana has presented their work in English, French, and Italian in North America, Europe, and Asia. They wrote and directed the film Matters of Great Unimportance (2019).
