CGiii Comment

Meagre on budget...huge on talent.

An original perspective on the transition process - seen through the eyes of a teenage daughter who has a few issues of her own to contend with.

Dare we say...it is rather deliciously quirky in places. And then...the darkness flushes it all away.

Transitioning is a battle...from woman to man, from child to adult...judgment is clouded, tempers detonate...and those caught in the crossfire simply become collateral damage.

A sterling achievement.
