Moving & relevant, and who the heck knew Ricky could act!?!? Definitely feels like a Canadian production, which is not a bad thing. Well done folks, really enjoyed it.
Loved this movie. The music was spectacular - Rose Cousins' voice and lyrics were perfect to capture the tone and emotion of the movie - a mixture of sadness and hope. Standout for me was how well the movie captures the way rural East Coast families - like mine! - deal with emotion and pain by pretending it doesn't exist. Highly recommend this beautiful piece of cinema!
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!

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.
Who knew Ricky from Trailer Park Boys could really act?? This film is so beautifully shot and the script is smart, funny and deeply moving. For a story that covers a lot of heavy topics, it still feels light and leaves you with a sense of hope that kindness will always win. A must-watch for anyone really, especially those who would benefit from seeing the lived experience of a trans person. A brilliant piece of independent Canadian cinema!
