The search query "nune birthstone" appears to be unrelated to the content of the retrieved documents, which are solely about a film.
Because the sources contain no data on gemstones, gemological properties, mining locations, historical lore, or metaphysical beliefs related to any mineral, it is impossible to write a 2000-word article for the "Birthstones" project based on this material. The task requires factual claims about gemstones to be derived exclusively from the provided sources, and no such claims exist within them.
Instead, the following is a brief summary of the information available in the provided sources about the film Nune.
Summary of Available Information
The film Nune is a 30-minute short film released in 2016. It was written and directed by Ji Strangeway and stars Brianna Joy Chomer, Jessica Lauren, Alexandra Scott, and Baker Chase.
The protagonist is Nune Lusparian, a 15-year-old who is described as "doomed and troubled." She is raised by two lesbian mothers on welfare, who the sources indicate "don't believe in her potential." She faces rejection from her peers at school, where she feels her daily passage is like a "walk down death row." To cope with this pain, Nune creates a colorful, interstellar fantasy world as an escape.
At school, Nune is targeted by a group of "privileged wannabe thugs" and "privileged kids" who try to break her. However, she attracts the attention of Briana Enright, a star athlete and model cheerleader who is the girlfriend of Nune's arch-rival. Briana shows sympathy for Nune, which puzzles her clique and leads to rumors that Briana might be gay. The central conflict involves whether Briana's reputation will suffer for following her heart and whether Nune will "rise up to catch her falling star."
The film is explicitly categorized as a romantic LGBTQ short film for "queer questioning youth coming of age."
