Strictly for the Birds (2021)
Kate Birdsall, who was born transgender decades before the word existed, and struggled to make sense of it all. Through many relocations and many jobs, including a career in the Coast Guard, Kate grew to be able to claim herself at the age of 65, and to find the love of her life, Andrea Drury. Their journey to "rightness" as individuals and as a couple has grown into a beautiful blended family, that includes Kate's daughter, and grandson.

    Nothing but love
    This was such a heartfelt movie. I'm more of an action, crime movie fan but I seen this trending and I gave it a shot. Great acting, deep storyline and a beautiful ending. A must watch.
