Toe The Line, written and directed by non-binary Canto storyteller Carolyn J. Wu, is a thought-provoking short film that follows the story of Gloria Chau, a closeted teenage hockey player who rediscovers her sense of purpose when she loses her childhood dream: playing Olympic hockey. Gloria is torn between two worlds: the fun and cutthroat world of hockey where she gets to be loud and proud in her queerness, and the one at home where she’s a recluse, using music to cope with being forced into becoming someone she’s not by her mother. Underlying these tensions is a deep racial divide. She learns to use the power of her ancestors to seek a new purpose and redefine success for herself.
