Super 8
footage
and
snapshots
show Mark
and Alex,
two
towheaded
identical
twins,
jumping rope and blowing out birthday candles.
But there was much more going on behind the
picture-perfect facade of their suburban home, as
the Farley family struggled with coming out,
sexual abuse, divorce, drug use, and a failed joint
suicide attempt. Now 21, Mark and Alex work
through their painful past and begin to look
forward with their family members, whose
powerful emotions run the gamut from anger and
sadness to empathy and joy. Red Without Blue
reexamines selfhood, sexual identity, and the
resilient bonds of family.
