The Story

Danielle Joy “DJ” Healey and her wife, Becky, met and fell in love in the 80s in Texas. A wildly successful, larger-than-life lawyer & social butterfly wife, they were best friends from the moment they met. To the outside world, they were living the traditional nuclear family dream in an idyllic suburb, but Danielle was hiding a secret behind a beard, a big personality & fancy suits.

In 2017, Danielle is finally ready to reveal a secret she’s kept for 57 years to her wife, family, law firm, and entire Facebook community: Danielle is trans. How will this transition affect her highly successful career, 30-year marriage, and two daughters in the vortex of Texas conservatism?

As the political landscape evolves and Danielle's world expands, she integrates into the LGBTQ+ community, makes dynamic new friends, reclaims her confidence, and uses her legal prowess to help fight for the rights of her trans and queer brothers, sisters & siblings.

This immersive documentary celebrates the journey to living authentically while challenging the idea of what modern love looks like.
