本片是一部在太平洋的島嶼上，第一支廣為外界所知的跨性別男性群體——薩摩亞群島的羅傑斯（Rogers）的生活紀事。包括食衣住行的日常、愛情觀、乃至於對傳統習俗舞蹈的重構。儘管阻礙重重，這些羅傑斯的故事仍然展示了一群被社會所拋棄的人們，如何重新建立起一個嶄新社群的力量。

An intimate glimpse into the lives of those who formed the first visible group of transgender men in the Pacific Islands - The Rogers of Samoa – as they build an outside oven (umu) ing many obstacles, their stories illustrate the power of those rejected by society to create their community.
