Two films asking how identity shapes the way we are seen, treated and accepted.

After being mistaken for his twin brother by his estranged and dying dad, a self-loathing trans man relishes the opportunity to be one of the boys, until the weight of the lie becomes heavier than his need for the truth.

Starring Harvey Zielinski, Hunter Page-Lochard, Kieran Darcy-Smith, Nic Cassim, Ngaire Pigram, Dave Howell and Belinda McClory.
