SYNOPSIS:

A stranded dreamer, a bored typist and a defiant transqueerian space captain attempt to rediscover joy in a fantastical #StopAsianHate music video propelled by dance and animation.

Outrageously underrepresented in the UK arts, 87% of the creative team were East and/or Southeast Asian or South Asian. Over half were LGBTIQA+, with nearly a third identifying as trans/non-binary/genderqueer. The team also included neurodivergent and disabled artists.

RESPONSES

"Your film was inspiring and poignant and we were incredibly lucky to have it in our festival."
Official Trans Pride Brighton Annual Film Event


"I laughed. I cried.”
Queer Asian, Brighton

"While The Mollusc Dimension tackles some emotions that can feel dark and frustrating (for those of us who might identify with the subject matter), the song itself is light, bouncy, playful, and at times softly soulful -- much like the wonderful talent behind it!  A joyous romp and a sweet self-love ballad mixed into one."
Kelsey Yuhara (Artist, Performer, Director, Improviser)

"An amazing experience to attend a night of queer and trans ESEA joy! A night of poetry, music and protest songs. The night ended with a panel of trans majority and queer ESEA creatives discussing barriers within the industry, celebrating chosen family and embracing uniqueness."

"Had the best time watching The Mollusc Dimension’s amazing solo debut solo which is produced by the amazing Tuyet Van Huynh. Amazing panel chaired by the one and only Mei Mac with inspiring and awesome people Tuyet Van Huynh, The Mollusc Dimension, Enxi Chang, Lusty Lovelace and Tim Lytc." 
Steph, Asians in Britain (she/her)

ABOUT THE SONG


Sweet melodies, subversive lyrics, feel-good dance breaks and an epic Freddie Mercury piano molten centre.The emotions of the multiple marginalisation of sinophobia, LGBTIQA+phobia and other isolating experiences, combined with luminous textures, irregular meter and cheeky fills takes you on a kaleidoscopic, decolonising musical adventure!
