16-year-old Rebekah loves to play field hockey with her friends and is a valued team member. However, as a transgender teen, the joy and community she feels from the sport is constantly in jeopardy from those who would see her banned from playing with other girls. We wanted to show what it's like when we just let trans kids be kids because every child deserves to discover who they are and thrive as their true selves.
