CGiii Comment

What this film needed was...structure!

It's all a bit random, failing to tell Johnita's full story...and, it is a story the needs to be told.


No trailer...

The(ir) Blurb...

After her whirlwind appearance on the reality show “The Next Star”, Johnita, a young transgender singer, falls back into her reality. There she lives with her Orthodox father, then goes to the Pride Parade. She dreams of finding love while the realities of discrimination and hatred are a constant in her life and raise questions of eternal conflict.
