Cruel and Unusual: Transgender Women in Prison (USA).
Documentary by Janet Baus & Dan Hunt. (2006)

IMDb:
Imagine being a woman in a men's prison. For many individuals, this is a grim reality because the U.S. prison system decides where to place inmates based on their genitalia, not their gender identity. This award-winning documentary makes an unflinching examination of transgender women in men's prisons.

THIS IS NOT MY WORK.

  • Beautiful courage and strength. Linda, you deserve so much more than you got in this life Honey. You are a trailblazer with Miss Ophelia. I love to see strong women take back their power and demand change until they get it. It absolutely shows the heart and strength of a real woman!!!! Tears are just flowing freely with a smile. Thank you for sharing such a beautiful film on preserverance. We could all use more of it to make changes for good!

  • What an incredible film. Thank you for posting this, and thank these wonderful ladies for sharing their experiences with us. Wow.

  • the human spirit has no gender.

  • you've been trying not to prostitute? LOL

  • goddamn linda, you cant win.

  • If you EVER feel sorry for yourself, think of these people!

  • hey im in the uk.i am so glad that i have seen these 7 clips. i thought fuck what an ugly geezer. but after i thought, i wish i coujd help that person,to be so strong,and stay alive.........this is a film in the making.i hope there must be someone out there that can help.i cant i dont even have my own home/job........but thank you for making me feel humble.

  • THE MORAL you can come away with here is to believe in yourself, i think the most tragic is linda paying special attention to her work situation. - wouldn't it be great if an oil company finally hired her and let her live her life out the right way? c mon guys lets get out of the 1800s shall we?

  • I felt really bad for Linda. :(
