What makes a male, what makes a female, where do we draw the line, and why does it matter? Sharon-Rose, the beauty queen with male genetics who struggles with gender dysphoria, needs the guidance of somebody just like her. But the only person who will help is Dimakatso, a male-presenting intersex activist who turns out to be her complete opposite.
The two parallel but divergent stories are an intimate look at the struggle of living in a male-female world, when you are both or neither. Intimate, impressive documentary.
