PROPER PRONOUNS

PROPER PRONOUNS

Directed by: Megan Daniels | 65 min | 2021 | United States

At 61 years old, Duane was publicly outed by his hairdresser and was forced to reveal the double life that he was living, sending him on a downward spiral. It cost him his pastoral license and ministry, threatened his marriage, and made him wonder if life was still worth living. After therapy and deep self-reflection, Duane fought back, transitioned to Dawn, and started her journey to reclaim her life. Dawn finally found the courage to embrace her truth and the calling to help others embrace theirs. However, her battle left collateral damage, and none more than her 30-year marriage to Pam.

Proper Pronouns is an observational film depicting Dawn's fight to re-enter the church, live in a community that does not accept her, and salvage her marriage to a woman she still loves.
