A painful, but necessary documentary that begins in the immediate aftermath of the Orlando massacre in 2016: one of the worst terrorist attacks against the LGBTQI+ community, where 49 people died. Jeannette was present at the Pulse nightclub and survived the attack. Jeannette is a Hispanic, lesbian single mother who works as a professional bodybuilder. She does her best to manage her life as a survivor, moment by moment, without heroics, in order to build a community for herself and her family.
