Synopsis
Bree (Felicity Huffman) is a perfectly adjusted conservative transsexual woman. Born Stanley, a genetic male, she's about to take the final step to becoming the woman Stanley always wanted to be - until she finds out that she is the parent of a long-lost 17 year-old son (Kevin Zegers). Afraid to tell the rebellious teenager the truth, Bree embarks on a journey with him that will challenge and change both their lives and bring them closer to the truth of their connection.
Don't miss your chance to see Felicity Huffman in her award winning role. Having already walked away with Best Actress awards at the Golden Globes, Dallas-Fort Worth Film Critics Association Awards, National Board of Review, Satellite Awards, Southeastern Film Critics Association Awards, Tribeca Film Festival, and Vancouver Film Critics Circle, Huffman is the strongest contender in the Best Actress category at this year's Oscars.

Reviews
"Until it detours into dysfunctional-family comedy-drama, TRANSAMERICA rides cross-country without ever running low on bracing, cactus-spined surprises."
- Michael Sragow, Baltimore Sun
"Impressively realized on all levels, this transgender spin on the road trip boasts an extraordinary central performance."
- Sheri Linden, The Hollywood Reporter
"Laugh-out-loud funny, tartly off-color and ultimately touching."
- Eddie Cockrell, Variety
"This debut feature left me in a state of movie euphoria. Who could have guessed that such a discomfiting premise would blossom into a deadpan-hilarious and yet deeply affecting story about a singular glitch in the human condition?"
- Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal
"But the most impressive thing is how, a few minutes into the film, you stop noticing Huffman's external transformations and start to focus on the character. Not that the external stuff isn't impressive."
- Joel Stein, Time
