Trapped in a male body, Renita wanted to be a doctor and a woman since she was a child but her parents forced her to study at a Islamic school where she was bullied and ostracised. She rebelled by becoming a prostitute in the hope of finding freedom but instead, found that it came at a cost -- she experienced brutality and was discriminated against by her family and the Indonesian society in which she lived
"People think that becoming a transsexual is a profession. It's not a profession. We do this because we need some food. Although we want to have a position in the government, they will not recruit us. Private companies won't accept us either - except working in a beauty parlour." Renita says.
"A surprising and close look into a different kind of life. The documentary does not offer simple ready answers, but makes one define what is normal." Jukka-Pekka Laakso. Director of Tampere Film Festival Finland, said.
"A familiar approach to a familiar theme in recent documentary.The mournful music comments too heavily on the images, which themselves sometimes seem random." say Chris Fujiwara film critic and columnist Hollywood Reporter and Variety.
" A very interesting movie; the treatment is brilliant and special because it is dealt in a very different way creating a strange sensitivy. A new dimension is revealed paving the way to claim their rightful demands. A goodeffort Tapan Sinha, film director from India.
