An uptight lawyer falls in love with a free-spirited musician, but dynamics shift when one of them begins to question their gender

Description

New York State Premiere

Despite their obvious differences, Denny and Ryan — an eccentric musician and a straight-laced lawyer — are drawn to each other like magnets. But when Denny begins to question their gender, sexuality, and relationship with Ryan, the two discover opposites might no longer attract.

An incomparable and wholly new vision for non-binary representation onscreen, David O'Donnell’s breakthrough feature debut casts four non-binary actors (Liv Hewson, Lex Ryan, and local NYC talents Chloe Freeman and Bobbi Salvör Menuez) in the role of Denny, demonstrating the many layers and multitudes we can hold within ourselves at one time.

This film will be followed by a Q&A with Bobbi Menuez and Chloe Freeman
