“I imagine it gets uncomfortable, sitting that long with a stick up your ass.” Megan Bloomfield is living the all-American high school dream: she’s a cheerleader, popular, dating the football star, and in church every Sunday… But something doesn’t quite fit the picture. She’s a vegetarian, listens to Melissa Etheridge, and when she kisses her boyfriend, her thoughts keep drifting suspiciously often to her fellow cheerleaders. For her parents and everyone around her, the conclusion is obvious: Megan must be a lesbian. So she’s shipped off to the “rehabilitation” camp True Directions an absurdly exaggerated institution devoted to “sexual reorientation.” Between dress codes, group therapy, and forced conformity, we follow Megan on a journey of new friendships, first love, and finally, finding herself. Despite poor reviews and a limited release, “But I’m a Cheerleader” created by a queer director has become an iconic representation of queer women and still enjoys a fiercely loyal fanbase today.
