This experimental animated documentary opens up the topic of identity, gender and satisfaction with one's own body. John, the director's twin brother, looks inside himself and wants to be seen as the person he is now - not the person he was. The filmmaker used over 500 prints of herself and her brother to create the film.

The film has been nominated for the Jury Prize at the Sundance Film Festival 2020, the Best Graduate Film Award at the Annecy International Animation Festival 2020 and the Main Competition of the Uppsala International Short Film Festival 2020.
