SYNOPSIS:
2018, Seattle. When a rare chance opens for gender affirming top surgery,
37-year-old Matt Levit is faced with the decision of a lifetime. With
lively girlfriend Leisha Meyer by his side, Matt navigates the bureaucracy
of the top surgery process. But once Matt is thrown deep into surgery
recovery, he suddenly finds his present intertwining with his past self,
Kimberly. Plunging through past and present, Matt is dropped into
confronting the changing landscapes of friendships, sudden loss of
his mother, Jewish identity as a transgender person, and discovering
hidden history of transgender men. The more Matt is compelled to pull
at the threads of time, relationships, and gender, the more he uncovers the
complex elements that make up a life. An unflinchingly honest and up close
ride in the quest to know what it is to be our authentic selves.

LOG LINE:
37-year-old Matt Levit's reality is turned upside down when he is thrust
into recovery from gender affirming top surgery. When Matt's past intertwines
with his present, he is forced to reckon with long buried demons.
