Desperate Housewives star Felicity Huffman was Oscar nominated
for her role as 'Bree', a transsexual who is one snip away
from making her transformation from a man to a woman complete.
Complications soon arise when Bree is confronted with the
news that in a past heterosexual encounter he fathered a
son, Toby, whose drug use and rent boy life-style have landed
him in trouble with the law.
Fearing her son's reaction Bree poses as a Christian case-worker,
leading him on a mutual voyage of self discovery. This is
a beautifully acted tale of acceptance that perfectly balances
whimsy, hilarity and charm.
