Synopsis

Meet Evon, formerly known as Andy. She is a transgender woman aged 55 years. Making the transition late in life after losing a wife, saw her lose her job, family, and become subject to prejudice in society where transgender and gay people face job discrimination and run the risk of being murdered. When she loses her best friend, things look bleak, but a chance meeting with a mother and a son with nowhere to go and nobody to care for them after they escape an abusive relationship changes her life in this melancholy yet hopeful film that shows how tending to the humanity in others and showing kindness are important for making life bearable.[5]
