Description

16-year-old Billie is a vulnerable girl whose reluctant path to independence is accelerated when her mother reveals plans for gender transition and their time together becomes limited to Tuesday afternoons. As her parent navigates dramatic changes, the teen embarks on some physical explorations of her own. Filmed over the course of a year, once a week, every week-only on Tuesdays-the production's unique filmmaking rules bring a rare authenticity to this emotionally charged story of desire, responsibility, and transformation. Director Sophie Hyde's experimental debut feature received awards at the 2014 Sundance and Berlin film festivals.
