Content : An epic journey through the evolution of LGBTQIA+ rights in the United States.

After World War II, the Zephyr sisters, Amanda and Louison, lose all contact.

Amanda, who has moved to the United States to pursue a career in music, becomes caught up in the “Lavender Scare” targeting queer people and must live in hiding.
Louison, with the help of her friend Gil, sets out to find her, following the difficult clues left by a sister determined to disappear. Along the way, she is forced to confront her own identity.

From 1952 to 1969, at the dawn of the LGBTQIA+ rights movement, the sisters must fight to reunite and claim their freedom.

A true epic that reveals how LGBTQIA+ people were treated during the 1950s, set against the backdrop of the Cold War.
