Audrey Morris is a trans woman who was once a popular professional wrestler. Transphobic management and a horrible in-ring accident drove her from the sport. Sequestered in a small town, she struggles with her identity, body dysmorphia, addiction, and isolation in a series of surreal, interior vignettes. Can she find self-acceptance and community in the face of her own trauma?
