After fifty years of living in a male role, Mónika has finally found the courage to be herself – even though her decision is far from easy in today’s Hungary. But unlike the conservative society around her, Mónika’s son Gabi fully supports her. Glimpses of her life show that any obstacle can be overcome when you have someone cheering you on.
