CGiii Comment

A film that could have gone so much further...

A mother with three trans kids...she has an amazing sense of humour... and accepts her kids wholeheartedly. Really, she should have been the centre of the film!

The(ir) Blurb...

On a small island at the mouth of the Amazon River, Dominique reminisces about her life as a trans woman: from a strict religious childhood to living with a conservative gay uncle, from moving to São Paulo to entering a life of prostitution and being a victim of police brutality. At home, her mother talks about realizing that her son is a gay man, at first, and then a trans woman. Dominique plans her return to Cotijuba, a remote small island in the Amazon, to spend their later years together.
