Seven women, three generations, one family and countless secrets and lies. Meet Canada’s Gayest Family.
UNUSUALLY NORMAL spans three eras of women in one family household - the youngest, Madison Ford, draws a family tree with 2 grandmothers and 4 mothers. This documentary builds on intimate family videos, photographs, archival footage and social media postings (their Tik Tok account boasts 200,000 followers) to reflect LGBTQ+ stories from the ‘40s until present day. Through these very personal accounts, UNUSUALLY NORMAL explores obstacles from family rejection to clandestine love, and the happiness found by allowing themselves to live freely, outing themselves, falling in love and leading life on their terms.
“Because Unusually Normal is able to contrast the stories of the bigotry and hatred these women encountered over the years with the positive reactions they are now receiving via social media, the viewer witnesses a concurrence of mutual support. As these women reach out to others with their stories, the enthusiastic responses – and the love – are heartening. They are sharing their family story for the benefit of others but are also receiving support back again.” – POV Magazine
