CGiii Comment
The last thing a pre-op trans*person needs is a mad, vile, cruel woman in her life.
Well, here she is - screwing up everyone she meets.
It's all done with a refreshing perspective - harsh...with comedic moments and difficult emotions - all expertly handled.
A powerhouse for this genre - it stays far away from the usual mindless crap that pervades this subject.
Expertly acted - for an acquired taste nonetheless.
