Hayley Kiyoko’s directorial feature debut, Girls Like Girls, is eleven years in the making. In 2015, she released the single, “Girls Like Girls,” and co-directed its accompanying music video. The song and video went viral and led to Kiyoko becoming an important voice for the LGBT community around the world. Seven years later, Kiyoko released a young adult novel with the same name as the viral song. Finally, four years after that, Kiyoko’s deeply personal story will make it to the silver screen. While Kiyoko is a musician herself, she tapped composer Jessica Rose Weiss to write the score for Girls Like Girls, a task Weiss did not take lightly.
