Synopsis
Christina is a young trans woman who's running from her past and home. When she buys a broken-down boat for that purpose, she gets more than she bargained for in the boat's owner, Esteban. He gives her a place to stay on an abandoned barge and helps her fix up the boat. Slowly but surely, they find themselves quietly navigating the sometimes messy waters of a straight man falling for a trans woman. As their connection grows, Christina makes a temporary but real home for herself on the docks and begins to rebuild her life as Esteban rebuilds her boat. Day by day, she begins to find something steady in a ramshackle barge, a barely-running boat, and stocking the aisles in a mundane grocery store. She slowly sheds the pieces of the life that haunts her, moving past the obstacles that stand between her and freedom. We can't find home standing still; for some of us, home is in finding who we are, in raising the anchors and embracing freedom on the water.
