Anything’s Possible (★★★☆☆) conjures a sweet romance between high school seniors Kelsa (Eva Reign) and Khal (Abubakr Ali). The film doesn’t radically shake up the modern romantic-comedy formula, except by centering this teenage love story around a teen who happens to be trans.Played with verve and confidence by newcomer Reign, Kelsa is enjoying life as a smart, fashionable, relatively well-adjusted, and socially stable cool girl at Pittsurgh’s River Point High.Whatever major issues or anxieties she’s dealing with, she generally channels into the video diary that she posts online, but keeps from her exceptionally supportive — and protective — mom Selene (Tony-winner Renée Elise Goldsberry).The movie reveals early on that Kelsa’s handsome classmate Khal isn’t just crushing on her, but also has watched her videos, apparently in a sincere effort to better understand her experience.
The really radical move here is the depiction of Khal as a thoughtful, sensitive lad with few hangups about loving whom he loves.
