A thought-provoking journey of change and identity.

Quinn knew for a while that something just did not fit … and struggled.

Beautifully shot against the backdrop of nature and enriched by drawings and videos of young Quinn, the documentary offers a unique window into the ups and downs of a non-gender conforming young person.. Over a four-year period, Quinn’s transition takes them to identify as non-binary, fall in love, marry and have a child.

​

Deeply personal, yet surprisingly universal, the documentary is invigorated by the powerful music of celebrated non-binary musician Rae Spoon.

​

"Nothing stays the same," says Quinn, as they strive to find a place in a society that is fixed on labels.
