The central thesis of I’m Perfect is that the pursuit of perfection is a form of psychological exile. The film’s protagonists articulate a universal paradox: the more energy one expends trying to be flawless in the eyes of others, the further one drifts from one’s own core self. For its LGBTQ+ subjects, this pressure is exponentially magnified. They recount histories of being told their very existence—their genders, their desires, their ways of loving—were deviations from a “perfect” norm. Consequently, many learned to engage in what the film terms “identity origami”: a constant, exhausting folding and refolding of the self to fit into pre-approved social shapes. Lapp’s camera captures the exhaustion behind the smile, the tremor behind the confident pose, revealing that the public performance of “having it all together” is often a desperate act of survival.
