With "Altered Innocence: Vol. 1," the label aims to find a fresh audience for a collection of short films with LGBTQ themes, also dealing with endeavors
exploring the growing pains of adolescence. These are 12 offerings that vary in tone and creative approach, and a few of them are music videos that
take the surreal route to understanding human sexuality and identity. "Altered Innocence: Vol. 1" hopes to share underappreciated or forgotten shorts
from a wide variety of moviemaking voices. Some of these selections aim for laughs or tears, while a few gradually expose the horrors of life, but they
all offer a distinct creative fingerprint, delivering cinematic stories from burgeoning talent.
