CGiii Comment

Unfortunately...we had a major problem with this film.

The dancing is fantastic...but, the wig at the end...big mistake.

Trans*stories, especially when they deal with kids, have to be handled with the utmost of skill and understanding...this was like being hit in the face with a sledgehammer.

The(ir) Blurb...

Powerful and emotional short about a family challenged by a break in tradition, not only in the realms of Irish dancing, but in how to love and do best by their child.
