Documentary about transgendered people. The film alternates between musical performances and personal stories.

With old letters and archive clips, Ellen Bækgaard talks about historical figures such as Lili Elbe and Magnus Hirchsfeld. American Christine Jørgensen shares the story of her life and the attention she received when she went to Denmark in the 1950s to have sex reassignment surgery. And Thomas Holck, who was formerly called Lis, talks about his innermost thoughts and the 15 years it took to achieve stability in his new gender.
