shareThree courageous transgender high school athletes, playing at the top of their game, maneuver bureaucratic minefields set in place by discriminatory rules in order to participate in the sports they love. Caught in the center of a national civil rights debate, these resilient heroes persevere in their quest to compete as their authentic gender, learning how to direct and steer conversations aimed at changing the hearts and minds of adults, despite being teens themselves.
