CGiii Comment

Dean Hamer & Joe Wilson shine more light on the trans cultures of Samoa.

Transmen are not as readily accepted as transwomen. It's the stuff that interesting conversations are made of!

The(ir) Blurb...

An intimate glimpse of the first visible group of transgender men in the Pacific - the Rogers of Samoa. From the loneliness of family rejection and homelessness to the camaraderie of cooking, church, and dance, their stories reveal the challenges and possibilities of life in an island society rooted in tradition.
