IMDb
Young trans woman Myrsky has run away from her transphobic parents and lives on her grandfather Tapio’s couch. She dreams of moving somewhere far away, but high school graduation isn’t working out and her mother is causing problems. Tapio’s health issues and Myrsky’s mother’s remarks make her feel like a burden, and she takes her stress out on her friend Nella. On the verge of huge life decisions, the concern of Myrsky’s loved ones makes her second guess herself and rethink the meaning of home. Maybe there could be a new life still in the city that used to feel poisoned?
