Drama | 96 minutes | 2022
Ren, a trans girl in her mid-twenties, accompanies her parents, Mona and Guido, and her younger sister, Siena, on a beach resort holiday in Cottage Country. As Ren navigates the resort which caters to young families and retirees, she struggles to cope with her parents’ loving yet overbearing nature, and tries to balance the yearning for independence with the comfort of being taken care of. Looming in the back of Ren’s mind is the secret of her recent dismissal from work, and that once the holiday is over, she will need to rely even more on her family’s support. The realities of being a stunted millennial and a trans woman coalesce in Ren not wanting to be perceived as a burden on her family. Yet, by the end of the holiday, she realizes that it is okay to ask for help.
