The film playfully tackles the tropes often seen in psychoanalytical films, turning them on their head. The pacing is brisk yet thoughtful, allowing moments of humor to punctuate deeper commentary. One standout is the transformation of the 'mannish lesbian' into a captivating drag king, showcasing not just performance but also a commentary on self-representation.
