- Summary:
- Boy I Am profiles the journey of three trans men as they transition, uncovering their hopes and dreams in the process. An early exploration of the trans male experience, this documentary opens up a dialogue between transgender communities and trans-exclusionary radical feminists (TERF), tackling the resistance that some people in feminist and lesbian communities have around transitioning. It is a groundbreaking film that brings to light the understanding needed for more trans inclusivity within the larger LGBTQ and feminist movements. Sam's first feature, co-directed by Julie Hollar, positioned Sam as a vital voice nearly two decades ago.
