Synopsis

Thatcherite Britain, 1989 and transexuals are fighting back. Cabaret star Adele Anderson is facing a transphobic backlash after being cruelly outed by the press. Meanwhile in Manchester, Stephanie Anne Lloyd is a successful trans business woman selling gender affirming products to a huge cross dressing clientele, with shoulder pads and gusto. The European Court faces Mark Rees as he argues his case to be legally seen as male, whilst Christine Goodwin hurtles round East London driving a bus. The first trans MP, Racheal Webb, attempts to reclaim the guardianship of her child since transitioning.

In this landmark Channel 4 documentary, the first of its kind directed by an out trans person, Director Kristiene Clark fought back against the transphobic media, with an appeal to gender liberation.

Features an introduction and post-screening discussion of the film by Jaye Hudson of TGirlsonFilm.
