Stella is a trans woman surviving on the streets of Portland, working as a sex worker and navigating a world that sees her as both invisible and dangerous. Hardened by experience, she's learned to protect herself with sharp instincts, emotional walls, and-if needed-a gun.
But the same defenses that keep her alive are also killing her slowly. As she drifts through neon-lit nights and cold morning sidewalks, the story flashes between past and present, revealing how Stella's identity was shaped-layer by layer-by pain, desire, rejection, and resilience.
This is not a redemption tale. It's a raw, intimate portrait of one woman's battle to hold onto herself in a city that keeps trying to take her apart. Beneath the surface is a deeper struggle: the fight to trade survival for meaning, and fear for connection.
The Life & Death of a Trans Woman is about what we build to stay alive-and what it costs to finally live.
