Kana & Tomo meet in high school and hit it off right away. Tomo is a raging masc lesbian and a star in the volleyball team, battling a homophobic principal, an ogre of a father, and her own demons. Kana is x-jenda, plays bass guitar and has just returned from living in London where she transitioned socially. At school they discover a kindred spirit in Mandy, a gay Samoan English teacher from Melbourne. They attempt to set-up a club for queer kids but the idea is rebuffed by the principal so in defiance they set-up an online group instead. It’s a hit, and on a trip up to Tokyo Pride the three hatch a plan to do more—to open a queer-friendly café together. The search begins for a suitable place and all seems well until tragedy strikes when Tomo’s team mate takes her own life. The girls demand answers from the school. Unsatisfied, they quit in a blaze of internet indignation. But for Tomo, things worsen when her father announces plans to move away. She flatly refuses to go and cops a vicious beating. It’s all too much—her demons, the loss of her friend, and the prospect of losing Kana—and she escapes into the night.
