Across borders and cultures, six stories explore the courage it takes to reveal who we are—and the unexpected places where we find freedom, belonging, connection and care.


On his way to a party with his football mates, Theo enters a lift wearing a dress and heels, turning a short ride into a battle between the person he has been and the person he longs to become. In Rotterdam, a local architect guides a visitor from Istanbul through the city, and their professional tour gradually exposes profound differences in freedom, identity and belonging. In small-town New Zealand, a young Māori boy forms an unexpected bond with a Mormon missionary. A first-anniversary surprise and a disastrous party popper send Fab and Cassie’s argument over takeaway careening into deeper tensions surrounding their racial and queer identities. In Mexico, two women living with disabilities meet life’s challenges with tenderness, finding ways to love and care for one another. When a hyper-rational 12-year-old unexpectedly arrives at his father’s Prague apartment, his newly out dad recruits the only available babysitter—a Grindr hookup—and hopes for the best.

Theo has a secret he's never shared with his laddish football mates. On his way to their party, he steps into a lift wearing a dress and heels. As the floors rise, the journey becomes a battle between who he's been and who he truly is.
