The international Emmy award-winning series, First Day, returns to ABC ME and Hulu (USA) for a new four-part season.
Following on from the ground-breaking first series, Evie Macdonald is back as Hannah Bradford, a transgender girl starting a new year at Hillview High with her friends Olivia and Nat.
Season two builds on the themes in the original series as Hannah not only has to navigate the everyday challenges of fitting in at high school, but additional obstacles that come with being transgender. This year she decides to run for Class Captain, a decision which puts her in the public spotlight and exposes her to microaggressions from her classmates. Her search for a community of likeminded students opens her up to new perspectives and the courage to face her fears around dating.
Ahead of the series two premiere, catch up on First Day season one, now available to binge on ABC iview.
