Regretters

Orlando and Mikael go under the knife in hope of finding their true selves, only to realize that life on the other side isn?t as they had dreamed of. Now, well into their 60s, the two meet for the first time to talk about their lives as well as the one defining regret they both share: their sex change.

Directed by Marcus Lindeen.
