I won't go overboard on the side of the acting, but the storyline was real and it's amazing how often we see situations like this in our daily routine.
I have a nephew that has discovered that he does not want to be a 'guy' and I know there's some family members that are having a very hard time accepting this just as John (the father) and Tammy (the sister) did.
Insecurity of homophobic cowards leads to not only displays of social non-acceptance and, of course, hate crimes. It's truly amazing how much this factors into the lives of those that go through this life changing transformation.
This movie was an incredible reflection of the truth that exists and I must commend everyone involved. I will be watching this many more times in the future I'm sure!

A True Reflection
The best
Shelley Thompson is such an incredible play wright and creative. There's not doubt in me that so much love and care was poured into this film. Having more trans representation in theater is so important. Support Maritime film makers and local talent!
Love love love this movie
So good to have a movie that is inspiring and forgiving and family orientated. The story is real and shows how we can be compassionate. It is entertaining and a movie that is accessible to talk to tour kids about trans folks.
