As I mentioned during HORROR NOIRE, I love docs about the making of films as well as the analyzation of culture. This is the perfect companion piece for THE CELLULOID CLOSET documentary. It took me a while (longer than it should have) for me to see that I took for granted being able to see myself on screen — from my time as a child to throughout my life. I’ll never know what it is like to feel like I can’t see myself. Wether it takes until 2018 to see something like BLACK PANTHER come on screen. The Trans community has been through the ringer in life and we should be able to support them and include them in the film experience. As someone who wants to make film and TV shows — this is even more eye-opening that I thought it would be and it will be in the back of my mind whenever I make my own works.
