Powerful depiction of a friendship with humor, sadness and grace. And liked it even though it’s a documentary.

i've always had a special place in my heart for road movies. there is something very akin to being trans, and going on some great migratory experience with a rather unknowable destination. i think our bodies and the land beneath our feet / gender and inter/national borders are more similar than they are different. and moving through either (what even is "through" if these things are only fixed because someone said so..) is necessary to being and feeling alive. and it's always better to do it with a friend :'-) 
navigating familiar places or people while feeling alien to them at the same time is something i think any trans person knows all too well. as is the nausea of walking into somewhere or interacting with someone with your safety being not necessarily a given. harper's house in the middle of the mojave brought me to tears. but so did every time she opened herself up to random strangers and was met with kindness. my dream is for everyone to leave that house!!!! ♥️
whatever! sorry for the very long letterboxd monologue. it will happen again.
