An intimate, introspective portrait of a trans man navigating reconnection with his past while grappling with identity, belonging, and the complexity of relationships across a transformative day in New York.

Over the course of a single hectic day in New York City, three people from Feña's past are thrust back into his life: his foreign father, his straight ex-boyfriend, and his 13-year old half-sister. Having lost touch since transitioning from female to male, Feña must navigate the new dynamics of these old relationships while tackling the day-to-day challenges that come with living a life in-between.
