Gallus/i/ae tells the story of a young trans woman joining the Roman cult of Cybele and becoming one of the Gallae - priestesses of Cybele assigned male at birth but who used female names, adopted women’s clothing and castrated themselves. She travels with a band of her sisters, surviving through begging, public performance and sex work, until she eventually castrates herself in an ecstatic ceremony in the catacombs beneath the Temple of Cybele in Rome.
