First, I am impressed by the courage it took to be a part of this documentary. He has shared the most personal parts of his life, so that others could benefit from his experiences. The result is a beautiful and respectful film, so many of us can learn from it.
Transgender issues are central as our country evolves and grows, so it’s important for all of us to understand. This film will help, and it will spur good conversations that we need to have.
