Synopsis
In 2019, the Colorado Dragon Film Fest featured Season 1 of this web-based series. This year, we're showcasing Season 2! After coming to terms with her bisexuality, Sam attempts to be out and start fresh Junior year, but still struggles to deal with constant heteronormativity. Created by a majority female cast and crew, "I Put the Bi in Bitter" is a cute and lighthearted comedy that follows a bisexual teenager and her lesbian BFF as they navigate high school, deal with friendship/crushes, and all the other shenanigans and awkward moments that come from being young. Season 2 follows the same group of characters, right where Season 1 left off. |
