BEARDS is a half-hour television series based on real-life experiences of coming out and coming of age.
A delightfully uncomfortable dramady, the story is a love letter to the relationships, awkwardness,
and growing pains that helped us become who we are today.
WE NEED YOUR HELP
We are currently shooting our award-winning pilot as a proof-of-concept in hopes of bringing our series to life. Our team is 100% queer-identifying and is almost all women or non-binary.
This project is completely independently produced and is made possible thanks to generous contributions from our community.

When Lucy’s boyfriend, Casey, comes out to her as bisexual, she makes it her mission to be the most perfect, understanding, and supportive partner in an attempt to keep him at all costs - and in doing so, ignites her own sexual awakening.
