A well-intentioned dad (Steve Zahn) sets off with his cowboy-obsessed 11-year-old trans son (Sasha Knight) on a misjudged camping trip from Montana to the Canadian border after the nipper’s wish to identify as a boy is rejected by his mother (Jillian Bell). Detective Ann Dowd is soon on their trail . . .
Queer Vision presents these screenings of Anna Kerrigan’s award-winning revisionist western, which has received mixed reviews. The Independent found it “compassionate” and “sweetly realised” while Wendy Ide in The Observer considered it “clunking” and “predictable”.
