Trisha's only request is that upon death she be dressed as a different celebrity every
night of her wake. Just as her long-awaited beauty pageant crowning takes place, she
gets her wish, after collapsing on stage. Since her family never came around to having
a trans daughter, the wake is kept a secret by her best friend, Barbs. Flashbacks
take us deeper into a complex history of unspoken regrets, touching on each relationship
she fostered while she was alive, including a caring connection with her adopted daughter.
Looming transphobia won't stop this chosen family from laughing and loving, even after
Trisha's last breath.
