Passing

In this ground-breaking intimate documentary profile, three young Trans men of colour reflect on their place within the urban settings of Houston, Toronto and Brooklyn, while examining the personal narrative histories of identity, transition, masculine performativity and representation. Through insight into the precarious nature of contemporary gender and race norms, relations and expectations, each individual’s journey weaves together records of resilience and growth and highlights the diverse needs of a growing, yet underserved LGBTQ population. By rendering the unfamiliar recognizable, Passing serves as an agent for cultural change and generates a safe space to unpack themes of social progress, love and acceptance.
