BOY, I AM is an important exploration of issues rarely touched upon by most films portraying trans male experiences, this feature-length documentary sets itself apart from other recent films on this topic.
Tackling the resistance of some women in feminist and lesbian communities who view transitioning as at best a "trend" or at worst an anti-feminist act that taps into male privilege, this groundbreaking film opens up a dialogue between the lesbian, feminist, and transgender communities while also promoting understanding of transgender issues for general audiences.
