Assuming your homosexuality when you are American, as surprising as it may seem, is not necessarily straightforward. In the United States, 700,000 homosexuals have already undergone so-called conversion therapy. These therapies, which go by name only, promise to "fix" a deviant sexual orientation. Led by religious or pseudo-scientific communities, they do not hesitate to use humiliation and physical violence to achieve their ends and to change a person's inner identity. Conceived as a road movie, stretching from Alabama to California, this documentary immerses us in the world of conversion therapy, with powerful testimonies from victims and activists.
