Gerry and big brother Jos show us that there is more to being different than bullying, discrimination and harassment.

This short but sweet documentary follows transgender teen Gerry-Ottawa, as she talks to family and friends in the Atikamekw First Nation reserve of Manawan. Captured by her film buff brother Jos, the unquestioning acceptance of Gerry for who she is by family and the community is a refreshing glimpse of what is possible.
