Synopsis

Jeanne, 22, recounts the final moments of her life in a letter to her parents, marked by her inner struggles and the acceptance of her trans identity. On her journey of self-discovery, she meets Franck, a man with deep-rooted prejudices but also a certain fragility, with whom she forms a complex relationship. Jeanne explores identity and trans identity with sensitivity, between struggle and acceptance.
