A young trans woman named Or steps out for the first time dressed in feminine clothing, joined by her two best friends, ready to explore her boundaries. But their night takes an unexpected turn when their car breaks down, forcing them onto public transit—where buried grudges and painful confrontations surface, testing the fragile bonds of friendship and the weight of her own past.
