    I like this transgender short film more than others because even though they are acting they are actually trans which helps people relate to them more. Some trans short films the transgender person isnt actually transgender in real life

      Yeah I know. The person who posted the comment said some actors aren't actually trans when playing trans characters in short films, so my intention with my comment was asking how they knew that those actors were cisgender.

    I too was born with a major intersex condition and am also transgender myself. I found someone to love over forty years ago despite having a body that a far from the accepted gender norms we make our love work.
    This is our body and we are the ones how determine what our norms are. Please keep doing these short films.

      I prefer to see friendship because it provokes us to imagine its natural progression to a great romantic relationship that will work and last. That progression will be a fun ride that can be just as fun to imagine in a variety of different ways. But a romance is really a final destination. There's not much left to imagine.

    the acting is terrible but the idea behind it is amazing and i love the way that unlike most "trans" films, you didn't have the film 100% centered around the fact that these people are trans. If it wasn't for the title, the twist that both of them are trans in the end would be shocking

    Idk why, but lately I've been thinking maybe I'd be happier with a trans woman by my side instead of a cis woman (not for sexual reasons) but because I think they're more fun to be with, hanging out, watching movies, talking, holding one-another, I think the love and communication would be better than other relationships.
