The World According to Allee Willis Synopsis
Take one look at award-winning songwriter / artist Allee Willis and you see someone unafraid to be themselves.

But privately, Allee struggled with not fitting established gender and sexual norms. She buried herself in her work, until true love manifested her ultimate masterpiece - self-acceptance.
