The film portrays 17-year-old Amber and their best friend Sebastian, who refuse to let society label their gender. Moving through a spectrum of fluid identities, they dream together, party together and form friendships with like-minded people. The queer teenagers inhabit an open and loving world far from the judging eyes of others, in which everything seems possible. But when Amber falls in love with Charlie, their utopian world is shaken to its core. Trust issues begin to emerge, and in the midst of it all, Amber has to face going through their transition alone.
Always Amber was produced by Göran Hugo Olsson, director of the hit documentaries Fuck You, Fuck You Very Much (1998), The Black Power Mixtape 1967-1975 [+lire aussi :
