Experiencing Interruptions?

Men's Game

Cris, a 24-year-old trans man, works in a distillery office but dreams of joining the production team. To get closer, he bonds with his coworkers and attends a gathering to watch a game, seeking recognition as one of them. However, an accident exposes him to ridicule, and Oscar, his only ally, turns away. Alone and humiliated, Cris reaffirms his identity: more than fitting in, his struggle is to be seen and accepted for who he truly is.
