"The Winged Detectives" is a queer coming-of-age short film, which follows Reagan and her friends as they prepare for the annual bird-watching competition. Tensions quickly rise for Reagan with the introduction of potential new friends and the absence of a special team member.

College student Julien knows they're trans, but they're just having a hard time telling the people they care about. And when their best friend confronts them, their fears only grow worse. But when they wake up in the world of their favorite Western movie, they step into the shoes of their hero, the cowboy Harry Allen, and find the strength to come out.
