Jeannette, a competitive bodybuilder and queer single mother, struggles to cope with trauma after surviving the mass shooting at Orlando’s Pulse Nightclub in this poignant documentary that embraces the strength, hope and humor of an incredible woman’s journey of healing.

Filmed in striking vérité, this portrait of competitive bodybuilder and lesbian single mother, Jeannette, unfolds as an intimate story of balancing the relentlessness of daily existence with the realities of living through trauma. Set in the aftermath of Orlando’s Pulse nightclub mass shooting, Jeannette seeks support and healing through community while she continues to coach fellow survivors at the gym, contend with a strained relationship with her Puerto Rican mother, and raise her teenage son. As her life begins to calm, Hurricane María hits Puerto Rico and Jeannette is thrown back into crisis mode.
