I am a woman with 46,XY (male) chromosomes. In my life, I have struggled with unwarranted categorisation and medical interference. Now, I actively seek to disrupt this cataloguing and meddling with as much honesty and humour as I can muster. It\u2019s the reason why I wanted to make this film.\u00ab<br \/>\n\u2013 Phoebe Hart<\/p>\n<p>Phoebe Hart\u2019s happy and carefree childhood comes to an abrupt end when she is told that she will neither menstruate nor be able to have children. The reasons for this become a family taboo. Only when she is 17-years-old does her mother enlighten her about her intersexuality. Phoebe then undergoes an orchiectomy, from which she suffers emotionally for a long time. As a documentary filmmaker, Phoebe Hart wants to come to terms with her intersexuality and takes off on a filmic journey of self-discovery. Her sister Bonnie and Bonnie\u2019s husband James support her in this. Her mother flatly refuses to take part in the film project. Together with Bonnie, Phoebe then travels all across Australia with her camera. In doing this she is confronted with other Australian intersexual people and together they learn from their shared experiences. Back home again, Phoebe is able to understand the difficult decisions that her parents had to face, and is overjoyed when they seem ready to be interviewed by her. Will an open talk with her mother provide the answers that Phoebe is looking for? In her autobiographical documentation Phoebe Hart draws a comprehensive picture of intersexual people whose lives in our times are still plagued with violence and who are treated as pathological.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Awards for \u203aOrchids \u2013 My Intersex Adventure\u2039<\/strong><br \/>\nBest Documentary, ATOM Awards and 1st Film at Brisbane International Film Festival 2010 | Best Documentary Mix Copenhagen 2011 | John Deen Memorial Award Spokane LGBT Film Festival USA 2011 | Best Documentary Under One Hour at AACTA Awards 2011 | runner up prize f\u00fcr die beste Dokumentation, Hamburg International Queer Film Festival 2010 | Most Outstanding Documentary, Queer Fruits Film Festival 2011<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","movie_year":[124],"movie_genre":[85],"movie_cat":[362],"festival":[628],"class_list":["post-19809","movie","type-movie","status-publish","hentry","movie_year-124","movie_genre-documentary-en","movie_cat-desired-film-lust-queer-en-2012","festival-2012-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Orchids \u2013 My Intersex Adventure - Internationales Frauen Film Fest<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/frauenfilmfest.com\/en\/movie\/orchids-my-intersex-adventure\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Orchids \u2013 My Intersex Adventure - Internationales Frauen Film Fest\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"\u00bbI have Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome (AIS).
