Heartwarming, uplifting, and authentic, THE WHISTLE follows the origin story of a peculiar secret code—a high-pitched whistle—shared by lesbian youth in Albuquerque, New Mexico, more than forty years ago as a way to covertly identify themselves in straight society. In this empowering documentary, transgender director StormMiguel Florez returns to his hometown to reconnect with longtime friends and to look back at how this characteristic signal helped them find each other and develop strong social ties in successive high school cohorts throughout the 1980s.
