From queer director Shaleece Haas comes and affecting documentary about transgender
teen and aspiring musician Bennett Wallace. With the support of his best friend Dylan
(also transitioning) and fellow transgender performer Joe Stevens, Bennett navigates
the ups and downs of his journey to find his voice, including sobriety and patience
as his mother weathers his transition, while reaching for the promise of a new life.
With a soundtrack that features Bennett and Joe's original songs, REAL BOY offers
deeply emotional glimpses into coming of age, revealing not only heartache and uncertainty
but also the ultimate joy that comes with irrevocable change and the realization of
one's truest self.
