With a budget of less than $25,000 dollars, this film, directed by Elina Gress and Lenee Son, tells the true to life story of the most beloved member of SHER Vancouver, the late January Marie Lapuz. She was born in the Philippines, later moved to Canada. Facing many challenges as an immigrant and as a transgender woman, January was brutally murdered in her New Westminster home on September 30, 2012.
