About This Movie

So, Miss Mona, from '87, it’s quite an interesting piece. The film dives deep into the life of an aging trans woman, who navigates her last years with this longing to finally be seen as a real woman. The tone is a mix of poignant moments and light-hearted comedy, creating a rather unique atmosphere. Pacing feels deliberate, allowing us to soak in her experiences and struggles. The performances are heartfelt, especially the lead, who brings a raw authenticity that’s hard to find. It's not flashy with effects, but the simplicity adds to its charm. Themes of identity and acceptance resonate throughout, making it a distinctive watch in its own right.
