Feña (one of the few Chilean names that is considered gender neutral) is having a tough day, with one thing after another piling on. His cishet ex-boyfriend reappears, his younger sister skips school to make an unannounced visit, and he has to pick up his father, who is flying in from Chile. The events of the day force Feña to confront some of the emotional baggage he had hoped to leave behind when he transitioned. It’s a compelling story, with the clear authenticity of a transmasculine filmmaker and a transmasculine star (Lío Mehiel, pictured) in the lead role. The script, the acting, and all of the behind-the-camera work, all blend seamlessly into a film that is clearly a MUST SEE for transmasculine audiences, but I would also say a MUST SEE for general audiences. Go see this film. It will have a limited theatrical release beginning in August, after which look for it to be available for streaming.
