Born biologically a girl, 15 year old Leo is one of the first children in Britain to be prescribed a new treatment – hormone blockers – to help him achieve what he feels is his natural gender identity of becoming a man.
As he turns 16, we follow Leo as he faces big changes and life-changing decisions.
