In this movie, 19-year-old Bennett Wallace takes a different path where he coexists with the development of his sexual identity. During this period of Bennett's life, his mother transforms her from resistance to accepting her transformed son. It seems that both mother and son may find support in their communities, reminding us that families are evaluated according to certain provisions.
With two subjects who are remarkably self-aware yet both out of their depth in different ways, this beautifully balanced documentary is engaging throughout. It's full of sharp observations and full of heart.
