Set in the early 90s, Glitch Baby is a short film that takes a quantum genre twist on the usual queer coming-of-age story when an unexpected show of affection on the soccer field leaves a young tomboy humiliated and questioning her place in the universe. In this self-defining moment, she triggers a quantum phenomenon that brings her face to face with a celestial version of herself, and through this encounter, the possibility of self-acceptance.
