On her way to the store with a group of friends, Chrishaun Reed "CeCe" McDonald was brutally attacked. While defending her life, a man was killed. After a coercive interrogation, CeCe was incarcerated in a men’s prison in Minnesota.  An international campaign to free CeCe garnered significant support from media and activists, including actress Laverne Cox. Documentarian Jac Gares pushes past the everyday narratives of victimhood surrounding the lives of transgender people to spotlight the way CeCe and other trans people are leading a growing movement fighting for the rights of transgender people everywhere.
