Ich bin trans*
I am trans*
Marcel-Jana Urban
Looks in the mirror, day-to-day routines and talking about oneself and one’s own body. Clothes and beard grooming are part of it, as well as the question of what feels good. The film accompanies Gianluca in the routines he has found. He is trans and tries out what he feels comfortable with. It’s about his personal perception rather than society’s expectations. Marcel-Jana Urban’s short creates a mini portrait that gives space to the protagonist.
