If Milk is too mainstream for you, then it’s time to get excited for Were The World Mine, a new indie movie now in select theaters. Singing! Frustrated gay youth! Magical tinctures that reset your sexual orientation! Here’s the trailer, plus a bonus clip with more singing.

The trailer compares it to Hedwig, but it reminds me more of the awesome Zero Patience.
