Home is a feeling, they say, but where is home, when you are not allowed to feel at home even within your own body and mind?
As I Was Looking Above, I Could See Myself Underneath unveils intimate stories of LGBTQ persons from Kosovo, going through their unceasing search for a safe place that allows them to be.
