A Real Girl

About this title

In my early 20s, I began to recognise the complexity of gender and sexuality. Growing up believing in a concept of sexuality and others’ has set an idea of what I should be. I wanted to be a boy and aspired that when I’m old enough to have a job, I would work and save money for sex reassignment surgery. Making this film was a celebration of the discovery within the self which simplifies acceptance and understanding the fluidity of human desire of interest.
