Summary
The film focuses on identity and discrimination in the daily lives of transgendered Brazilians living in São Paulo. It was made as part of a practice-based PhD and in accordance with the norms of 'ethnofiction' - an experimental ethnographic film style, closely associated with twentieth century French filmmaker Jean Rouch, in which the participants collaborate with the filmmaker to act out improvisations of their own life experiences.
