Tickets: FREE, RSVP requested
Lior is from a Kibbutz near the Dead Sea and is opinionated and outspoken. Yuval is from the bourgeoisie area of centralIsrael and is introverted and quiet. These differences amount to very little in comparison to what they share. Both men were born in female bodies, and each is struggling to change perceptions all around them. Lior turns the camera on himself and beautifully documents the fear, excitement and bravery that accompany his transformation; from cutting his ponytail right through to the operating room. Yuval initiates a legal battle for his identification card to state that he is a man. Alongside both of them for this important journey is Lior’s mother facing her own struggle to find the strength to accept her new son in place of the daughter she raised for 22 years. Presented in partnership with the J's WJFF Year-Round
