Seriously...this could be a feature!

As a short film, it packs an almighty punch.

Startling and heartbreaking.

Whilst juggling a turbulent home life, with an estranged father and alcoholic mother, trainee accountant Rachel is a career driven, transgender woman who is too busy for love. After a series of coincidental encounters with handsome Nathan, she impulsively takes a chance on a one night stand.
