In 2010, Belgian choreographer Alain Platel asked some transvestites of a certain age to step back into the spotlight for one last time and perform the glamorous show "Gardenia ". It was a decision that would radically change their lives. After two years of touring the company will return to Ghent for a final performance for the home crowd. How did 'Gardenia' change their lives and what does life look like 'post-Gardenia’? A beautifully shot portrait of courageous defenders of sexual freedom and about starting a new chapter late in life.
