What is Transhood About?
‘Transhood’ is a documentary film made over the course of five years (between 2014 and 2019) that takes an intimate look at the transitioning lives of four transgender kids and their immediate families. As time goes by, each of the kids – 12-year-old Jay, 15-year-old Leena, 7-year-old Avery and 4-year-old Phoenix – navigates more traditional experiences like puberty, acne, and sibling rivalry, but also instances of bullying, threats of violence, and body dysphoria. They face issues that their cis-gendered peers don’t have to go through and that’s some heavy stuff but these kids display admirable resilience and tenacity in the way they handle tough situations.
