The(ir) Blurb...

The last exams at school, everyone is in a celebratory mood. The transgender teenager Noah is one of them - but he’s often thrown out of this happy mood and overtaken by tormenting memories. In dazzling snapshots cut against each other, the trauma of the death of a friend is vividly experienced.
