Nectar from a magic flower allows three girls to temporarily live as boys in this coming of age fantasy thriller from Alexandra-Therese Keining.
Three teenage girls who face an onslaught of misogynist and homophobic insults at school discover the potent magical qualities of a plant in their greenhouse, giving them the power to transform into boys. With the ability to freely switch gender, their perceptions of the world - and each other - change forever.
Keining’s magical realist, coming of age film brings an entirely fresh approach to transgender issues in a heady, sensual picture that endeavours to capture something of the aching, longing and confusion of growing up in the wrong body.
