Filmmaker Saph Thompson has been building a year long documentary interviewing her terminally ill father: They talk about his homeland of Trinidad, various careers, loves and losses. However, she also has something she needs to say: She's Trans. In a valiant attempt at exposure therapy, Saph hopes to build a better memory of the absent dad in front of her.

This play is a 2026 Hollywood Fringe Festival Scholarship Recipient and will be performed at the Bad Ladder Theater. This production was funded by Hollywood Pantages Theatre and County Supervisor Lindsey P Horvath.
