Max, a transgender boy, and Bastian, who often identifies as a girl despite being assigned male at birth, struggle with their developing bodies. They consider hormone treatment to halt puberty, an urgent, life-changing decision. As their voices change and bodies develop, they face the irreversible consequences of hormone treatment. How do they discover their true selves during such a significant transition?
