Waitress/singer Marina's world is shaken when Orlando suddenly falls ill and passes away. Instead of being able to mourn her lover, Marina is treated with suspicion and as a transgender woman, is met with harsh judgment and discrimination by Orlando's family. The struggles she faces in the aftermath of her lover's death become a microcosm for her life. As she battles the very same forces that she has spent a lifetime fighting in order to become the woman she is - a complex, strong, forthright and fantastic woman. I got lost 3/4 of the way through and don't really remember how is ends. There is a lot of rain falling and a weird trip to the crematoria. I give it a 5. Stars Daniela Vega.
