Synopsis by Jason Buchanan
Born into female bodies yet convinced that their true gender identity is male, two women strive to ensure that their physical bodies are in line with their sexual identities as documentary filmmaker Orna Ben Dor traces every journey of their unique transformation. Having taken hormones for seven years and even undergone intensive upper body surgery, Yuval is determined to solidify his sexuality by having his identification documents updated to read "male." Meanwhile, Yuval's partner Lior awaits the surgery that will make her a man as well. But having raised a daughter for over two decades, how will Lior's mother react to seeing her beloved little girl suddenly disappear before her very eyes?
