In this refreshingly modern coming-of-age story based on the best-selling book by Mason Deaver, a high school junior (Corey Fogelmanis) comes out as nonbinary and is thrown out of their family's home. With nowhere else to turn, they move in with their estranged older sister (Alexandra Daddario) and her husband (Cole Sprouse). After enrolling in a new school, they find support from an eccentric art teacher (Lena Dunham) and form an unexpected bond with a kindhearted student (Miles Gutierrez-Riley). With the help of their new relationships, they navigate the awkward hurdles of young adulthood in this sweetly funny journey of self-discovery that celebrates the power of being true to yourself.

Fogelmanis holds central focus strongly enough in most respects, and the supporting cast generally adds relaxed credibility to their parts.

San Jose Mercury News

When a rare non-binary character appears in a film, often they’re saddled with the best friend or a sidekick... Tommy Dorman’s touching and joyful film gives them a deserved spot at the front of the cinematic table in a sweet, soulful coming-of-age drama.

Rated: 3/4

The loss of the therapist is a huge blow from an adaptation perspective, but the film compensates by shifting from coming out narrative to romance. Solid performances, great soundtrack and love the evolution of B's wardrobe

Rated: 3.5/5

Beautiful movie, heartfelt, a testament to the importance of being able to be yourself and also of the necessity of being supportive of individuals who are non-binary. Corey Fogelmanis is perfection.

Tommy transformed Ben’s story in a way that was so beautiful. It was worth the wait. And Mason’s cameo was a surprise too. I can’t wait to watch it again.
