Part documentary, part pornography, MES CHÉRIS is a transboi’s farewell to his boobs. One month before his mastectomy, Jamal Phoenix takes on the role of Chéri, a character modeled after his experiences as a Fierce Fem sex worker. This raunchy tribute subverts straight porn tropes and mainstream trans* representation in a radical act of self-love.
Credits: A Cutenon Film directed and produced by Ethan Folk and Ty Wardwell, written by Jamal Phoenix.
Starring Jamal Phoenix as Chéri with Dante Dionys as John
