A moving and hilariously honest portrait of a transgender son and his mom. based on the successful eponymous play. We see a kid who’s becoming more and more clear and a confused mom who can barely keep up with him.
Creating space for addressing the wrongs, concerns and clichés, this film provides a loving insight into the reality of a kid in transition. It shows the impact that ‘becoming who you are’ has on a family, but at the same time addresses universal themes like growing up, becoming an adult and the art of raising a kid and letting them go.
Not only for trans kids and their parents, but enriching for everyone.
