I'm so glad I got to play this title!  It's such a wonderfully touching story!  (And it's from Belgium!)

IMDb Plot Summary: Ludovic is a young boy who can't wait to grow up to be a woman. When his family discovers the little girl blossoming in him they are forced to contend with their own discomfort and the lack of understanding from their new neighbors. Their anger and impatience cave and Ludovic is sent to see a psychiatrist in the hopes of fixing whatever is wrong with him. A movie that addresses trans-gender and gender issues in general through the eyes of a child.

I remember seeing this movie back when Rob Lowe made my heart go pitter-patter. So who cares if the story was inane and the acting terrible? LOL

Yes, I could have picked one of dozens of "red" movies but I decided to do something a little different!
