Popis (anglicky):

Lia, a retired teacher from Georgia, is determined to find her long-lost transgender niece Tekla. When she learns from her 20-year-old neighbor that Tekla has left for Turkey, she travels to Istanbul and takes the cheeky Achi with her. In the vibrant city, they make new connections and see a world of possibilities. But how do you find someone who may not want to be found? When they meet Evrim, a trans rights lawyer, it seems to help their search. As Lia and Achi make their way through the alleys of Istanbul, Tekla begins to feel closer than ever.
