TRANS/FORMED is a feature film documentary that looks into the lives of the male and female trans-gender community living in Los Angeles; how they survive cultural upheaval and challenges from the social norm. The film follows the lives of four trans-gender women of different ethnicities and backgrounds, creating an unfolding eclectic family album assembled without judgment. With a subtle sense of appreciation of human imperfection and courage, through statistics and visual imagery, we show an ever increasing appreciation of the unique trans-gender form. TRANS/FORMED intends to expose the truths, challenges, revelations and faces of the trans-gender world. Through unfiltered eyes and a variety of testimonies we will reveal past horrors, present taboos, and future dreams. From silicon injection parties, prostitution, the growing trans-gender porn industry, weekend yoga retreats and stand up comedy, TRANS/FORMED explores the many facets of this fascinating world, leaving us Trans/Formed.
