Sam hasn't been home since his transition. After four years in Toronto, he makes the long-feared journey back to Cobourg for his father's birthday. On the train, he meets Katherine, a friend from high school who is now leading her own complicated life. Feelings from her unresolved past rise to the surface. Sam worries about seeing his family again after so long – not out of fear that they will reject him, but because of the unsolicited comments and questions he will receive about his transition. The uncertainty and discomfort of his family weighs heavily on his shoulders.
The drama is about the coming home of a trans person who is suddenly treated by everyone as a completely different person. An emotionally stirring, powerful performance by Elliot Page.
