Min-a works in a transgender bar and is a woman with male genitalia. When her colleague is attacked by a male customer, she steps in to help kill the attacker by mistake. At the court Min-a insists she had no choice - she had to protect her colleague - but the situation is not favorable for her. The prosecution exploits their sexual identity and drives the case as if the Murder was a result of jealousy, and Min-a's lawyer does not care about her situation. Only when Min-a is taken to a men's prison and is seized by terror, the human rights problems for transgender arise. Min-a is eventually transferred to a prison for women, but she still suffers from misunderstandings. This film seeks to portray the transgender human rights issues as a legal drama and seeks to correct the myriad misunderstandings of transgender people. Director Kim Se-yeon filmed this film based on a true story about a transgender person being detained with male inmates. This is also a court drama that includes traditional styles rather than new techniques.
