Law Siufung has spent much of their life fighting against boxes and binaries and for the right to live fully and freely as her/him/themself. Follow Siufung’s journey as they reflect upon a closing chapter in Hong Kong, embark on a new journey in Atlanta and work towards building a more accepting and inclusive society for all.

They’re a professional bodybuilder, an outspoken queer rights activist in Hong Kong — a city with few such voices — and a PhD candidate. Law Siufung has spent much of their life fighting against boxes and binaries, for the right to live fully and freely as her/him/themself. The film follows the international journey of the gender-fluid bodybuilder from Hong Kong to Atlanta (USA), as they challenge centuries of traditional social and cultural structure etched into Chinese and Southern American societies.
