Sinopsis(1)
To feel like a girl, being trapped in the body of a boy, being terrified and anxious to reach male puberty and develop a deep voice, visible Adam's apple and beard growth can hardly be described. Being a boy trapped in the body of a girl is not any easier. Imagine the anxiety, fear, and not least the contempt for yourself if you are a man entering female puberty, developing breasts and having menstruation. Would you have anybody talk to?
To be accepted as the one you actually are, might feel like an unattainable dream.
For our participants the dream of another and better life often ignites when they dare to challenge themselves, their friends, their family and their surroundings.
In this series you will meet 14 brave people in various stages of the process "of confirming their sex", being from 8 to 70 years old.
