A mixed-media animated film based on the real-world gender morphing Pink Skunk Fish where said species changes sexes from Male to Female. The story is led by a male fish Prince (Paul Reubens / Pee Wee Herman) destined to be Queen and learns from his mother the Queen (Geri Halliwell / Ginger Spice) how bodies are simply shells and that the courage it takes to be oneself is the mark of a true queen. "The strongest crown we carry are our hearts," she explains. Antagonist is a bully shark (Tatum O'Neal / Oscar winner) along side a Female to Male squid with top surgery scars to give a space for said imagery in an otherwise limited lane of visibility (voiced by Non-Binary LGBTQI+ actor iRAWniQ). All other characters are also voiced by multiple Trans-Gendered performers (MTF and FTM) and is aimed to teach the strongest muscle is the heart as well as a deeper consciousness and connectivity to all things within - and without. With an original score via the writer/director using beat-boxing with his mouth and actual recordings of his heart beat for bass lines, the film is meant to fall into it's own lane of storytelling.
