Against a Trans Narrative

Academic trans filmmaker Jules Rosskam directs this film that primarily functions as a dialogue between friends, cultures and generations that addresses issues of representation, identity-formation, and the various forces that act together to build communities. Its a unique documentary that specifically analyzes the construction of the dominant trans-masculine "narrative" and how this influences and potentially hinders peoples conceptions of themselves. Blending a genre-busting combination of intimate diary footage, stylized dramatic scenes, spoken word performance, faux audition tapes, and roundtable interview footage, AGAINST A TRANS NARRATIVE explores and initiates conversation between feminists, queers, and transfolk about the way we all construct personal and historical narratives.
AGAINST A TRANS NARRATIVE, Dir. Jules Rosskam, US, 2009, 61 minutes

Preceeded by QUEERER THAN THOU, which asks the eternal question: who is the queerest of them all? And proposes a light-hearted way of settling such dogmatic arguments.
QUEERER THAN THOU, Dir. Ramses Rodstein, 2008, US, 8 min
