Script in English

Emotionless robotic voice: Dear Mum & Dad. There is something that troubles me. That weighs heavily on my heart. As a child you taught me to be honest. But I realise I am living a lie. I am tired of hiding. Pretending to be something I am not. Mum and Dad, I’m gay. I hope you can be happy for me. Because I am happier than I have ever been in my entire life. Your loving son, Christopher.

VO: Getting an e-mail just isn’t the same as receiving a letter. Dupont pens. Don’t forget to write.
Script in Orginal Language

Une voix robotique completement froide et impersonnelle: Chère Maman, cher Papa. J’ai un poids sur le cœur. Vous m’avez appris à être honnête. Mais je réalise que je vis dans le mensonge. Maman, Papa, je suis gay. J’espère que vous n’en serez pas triste. Parce que moi, je n’ai jamais été aussi heureux. Sébastien.

VO: Reçevoir un e-mail ne sera jamais pareil que reçevoir une lettre. Stylos ST Dupont. N’oubliez pas d’écrire.
