About

what's safe, what's gross, what’s selfish and what’s stupid is a story assembled from material collected over the last three years. Jasmine Johnson has always made work with people, using drawings, paintings and videos. As Jasmine decides to turn the camera on themself as they try to get pregnant - first at home and then moving into the medicalised world of fertility clinics - they begin to record various dialogues with donors, friends and elders about desire and reproduction. The cast of queers assembled in the film establish themselves as a chosen family, offering hope and humour. 

Praise for the film

“what's safe, what's gross, what’s selfish and what’s stupid is an invaluable and rich project interrogating how to become bio-reproductive in a queer way, even as a desire, and its logistical, emotional and philosophical implications.”
