Copyvio issue with plot section

[edit]

I flagged the plot section of this article as a copyright violation because it is identical to the synopsis on the film's site at Sony Pictures Classics (its U.S. distributor), and was almost certainly copied from there or some other source. The proper resolution is for someone to write an original plot synopsis. --RBBrittain (talk) 03:33, 7 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I should add that as a transgender woman myself, I have no problem with the content per se; only that it's an obvious copy of copyrighted text. (One of the copyvio reports shows a few slight differences, but it's still clearly a copyvio.) --RBBrittain (talk) 03:53, 7 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
