Out Loud

OUT LOUD examines the challenges and social conflicts faced by youth in a society ruled by rigid ideas and traditions. Set in modern day Lebanon, where non-traditional relationships are taboo, five men and one woman form a unique bond that allows them to transcend the strictures of Middle Eastern society, but not without sacrifice and pain.

Jason, a young man with the innocent heart of a child, struggles to overcome the loss of his parents in a violent attack. Searching for someone he can identify with, Jason finds solace in an unlikely group of friends: a victim of constant exploitation; an eternal optimist and dreamer; a cold-hearted, ambitious young man; and a forbidden gay lover all become central to Jason's life. They meet a visiting stranger, Nathalie.
