Audience Member I saw this movie long time ago. It made me cry, very hurtful and cruel what those kids did. Today I am a "trans parent" oh Yes! I have a transgender child myself. I myself had struggle to except the fact that my child is trans. We attended adolescent counseling sessions together for two years. Today my trans son is 18 and in college. Fortunately he had support from the people around him. I love him always if he's happy, I'm happy <3 Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/11/23 Full Review Audience Member Dificil conter a emoção e não chorar...É daqueles filmes que assistimos com um nó na garganta, é de estarrecer o coração. Com um roteiro delicado e sério, porém, infelizmente chocante. Conta com uma ótima trilha sonora e atuações e direção super competente, transformando um filme feito pra tv numa grande obra. Um aprendizado em como nos tornar uma pessoa melhor, aceitando o próximo como ele é. Infelizmente a realidade aqui no Brasil é ainda pior, somos o pais que mais mata transexuais e o preconceito e a ignorância sobre determinados assuntos transformam a vida de muita gente em dor e sofrimento. Imperdível! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member man this moving is good but sad at the same time I don't throw judgement on no one.. they were wrong for wat they did. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member The only people who will say this movie is bad are the arrogant small minded c*nts who are the very reason this movie was made in the first place. My heart goes out to Gwen & her family ? Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Seen this movie a few times now. A very moving and thought provoking film. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member so so so sad made me cry Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Read all reviews
