Description

This animated short film explores the concept of Alterous attraction, the feeling of being emotionally drawn to someone in a way that you wouldn't describe as "just friends", but also is not romantic. June is a teenager on the asexual spectrum who struggles to put his feelings for his best friend into words. He makes up scenarios in his head to try to understand his emotions, and he realizes that love and emotional closeness don't need to fit into pre-determined categories.
