Line and Nantha (Captioned)

Line and Nantha are a couple trying to overcome the restrictive sex-role conditioning they were taught as they were growing up. Nantha talks about his family life in Malaysia and Line describes the everyday sexism of her family in Quebec. They are trying to become a couple and to create a relationship that is egalitarian.
