LEAD Nonbinary (open to trans and gender non-conforming actors) Navin is a nonbinary young adult navigating a deeply religious Black household shaped by silence, expectation, and control. They are observant, internal, and emotionally layered, often carrying more than they express. As they begin to explore their identity outside of that environment, they encounter moments of vulnerability, curiosity, and tension that challenge their understanding of self and family.
