CGiii Comment

Basically, this is a video diary of a trans teen showing a remarkable amount of immaturity for someone going through such a dramatic process.

The 'director' has a preoccupation with armpit hair, banal conversations and a whole host of irrelevant scenes.

As a film, it's nonsense - irritating rather than educational.

The(ir) Blurb...

Oliver is trapped in his own body. He is born as a girl, but feels like a boy. Everything is wrong when he meets himself in the mirror. He hides his breasts and lowers his voice before he walks out the door. He asks: 'What do you think when you see me ?' The creation of a new identity has just begun.
