Elijah: How can then a flower bloom, or a raindrop fall or, more importantly so, how ever can a soul be born into the wrong body without God's permission?

a sketch

It is a sketch about the clash between Christian faith against transgender status. About friendship, community, loneliness, angry, bravery. About faith. It is a sketch because it can not be more, like the words of director and it is just fair to be so. But the end, as believer and not very far by main character case is just unfair. Sure, I am profound subjective . The Church must remain significant . Maybe not the the parish of parents, maybe not a very close one but it is imposible to not meet the priest who understand. Maybe, the spiritual father himself who seems only be witness, never the confessor . So, a good intentioned sketch. With, maybe, not the most inspired final. But good acting, far to be bad storytelling.
