When choosing the title of our film we looked to poems by LGBTQ poets for inspiration. We chose to do this as the main narrative of our film is looking at the questions of sexuality amongst teenagers and we wanted this to be expressed in the title of the film. We came across the poem "These Hands, If Not Gods" by Natalie Diaz, which is a poem with strong LGBTQ themes and explores the ideas of sexuality with biblical and holy references. We decided this was the perfect title for our film as the poem, like our film, explores emotional connections between two people of the same gender who fall in love
