What happens when two trans dykes get fed up with the way non-trans people represent their lives and sexualities? Using a small 8mm camera and very little money, the filmmakers decide to tell their own story in their own way.

In the film, they speak openly about their relationships with gay men and their attraction to other trans women. Honest, direct and unapologetic, the film challenges who gets to speak about trans experience, and shows why it matters for people to represent themselves.
