這是一個關於性別、身份和被接納的故事。自 2014 年以來,千名丹麥兒少被醫生推斷可能為跨性別,轉診到醫院進行治療。16 歲的「弗蕾德里珂」和 5 歲「阿絲塔」生來是男孩,但心理認定自己是女孩。本片追蹤她們 6 年來的成長日記,近距離紀錄身體的轉變的同時,她們的家人又是如何面對親人的性別變化呢?
During the past six years, we’ve gained unique access to the life of two transgender girls. Frederik and Asbjørn are born as boys, but they identify themselves as girls and prefer to be called Frederikke and Asta.
The documentary is about gender, identity and being accepted as the person you are. It aims to explore the dilemmas and challenges of being transgender and how the parents and siblings deal with the gender change of their loved ones.
