Brittani’s Team Pick:
It’s been a while since we checked in with No Look Pass and in that time the documentary has been selected for a ton of festivals. The film boasts two Audience Awards and picked up Best Documentary at the Honolulu Rainbow Festival. The doc is now available on Showtime Women, Showtime Next, and iTunes.
NO LOOK PASS is the coming-of-age American Dream story of Emily “Etay” Tay, a first generation Burmese immigrant from Chinatown, Los Angeles, who breaks all of the rules of tradition. After living a double life at Harvard University, she strives to play professional basketball in Germany while coming out as a lesbian. Emily’s dreams are no slam dunk — family, race, and Don’t Ask Don’t Tell conspire against her, firing her passions on and off the court.
yes i would like to watch this with my eyeballs thank you brittani
I saw this documentary a few years ago when I was in the process of coming out of the closet and it made my sexuality feel very normal for me and it was comforting to see another person’s struggles, feelings, outside life, and relationships as well. Love it.

She’s cute! I officially have Friday night plans now.
This post comes with perfect timing. Can’t wait to watching!
Holy terrible grammar. The shame.
