This short film follows a young trans man recovering from top surgery, who recalls an evening from before he transitioned. In the memory his hoyfreind tries on a dress and some lipstick. I think this is when his "egg was cracked", begginging his transition. Oona Roche does a good job, but looks very different from the actor to play his older part, and it would have been nice to have both be played by trans men, just at different stages in their transitions. It didn't help that the same actor was used to play his boyfriend. I thought the couple would be t4t, so was shocked when in the end the boyfriend is cis, but looks exactly like his young counterpart. Very beautiful ending scene out on the lake.
