"The true story of Brigham Young University's queer underground, demanding their place in the sunlight."
A Long Way From Heaven outlines the struggles of queer students at Brigham Young university, the flagship university of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS). In addition to highlighting the historical oppression these students face, the film tells the story of the brave group of students and allies who lit up the school's iconic "Y" in rainbow colors on March 4th, 2021. The fallout from these events in explored in detail, focusing on the school's controversial "honor code", which bans any expression of same-sex romantic feelings.
