This short film is a very tender exploration of the early days of my transition, filmed shortly after I publicly came out as trans. We were able to capture footage of our
@saturnaliatoronto Libra SZN show featuring many familiar faces, and my lovely Dad wrote and performed the musical score for the film. 🩵
