For seven decades, Tom Farr has masterfully navigated two distinct worlds—a successful commercial electrician, husband, and father, while concealing their authentic self - Telane - the transgender identity hidden from everyone who knew Tom. This carefully constructed life came at a profound personal cost: isolation, mental and emotional strain, and the constant fear of discovery. Tom’s survival strategy was starkly simple—meticulously maintaining absolute separation between their male and female identities. Colleagues who unknowingly met Telane never connected her to their co-worker Tom. Tom’s professional and family circles were completely unaware of Telane’s existence.

​

Now, at 80, Tom faces an impossible choice. Witnessing their 13-year-old grandson’s struggle with identity and concerns at school amidst his parents’ contentious separation, Tom sees an opportunity for transformative love. By revealing their true self as Telane, they risk everything: family relationships, professional reputation, and the safety found under the cloak of cisgender identity they have maintained for decades. This is not just a personal revelation, but an act of intergenerational solidarity—a courageous stand that could either destroy or heal a family’s understanding of authenticity, love, and acceptance.
