The Red Shoes is an inherently queer story that shines a light on what it means to be true to yourself even in the face of great adversity.

In a climate where fundamental human rights are increasingly being taken away and stories are being erased, The Red Shoes in all its unashamed glory is a tale of reclamation that needs to be told and shared.
