A Message

Girl-Boy follows four masculine-presenting women—Tinuke, Fred, Ella, and Lara—navigating life in Nigeria’s rigid gender system. Through moments of rejection, resilience, and self-affirmation, they confront social and familial pressures, police violence, and prejudice. Each woman redefines femininity on her own terms: embracing identity, independence, and strength in a society that demands conformity. A moving portrait of courage, defiance, and self-love.

Girl-Boy

At the Amazonian tri-border of Colombia, Peru, and Brazil, an Indigenous trans beauty pageant emerges, defying deep-rooted prejudice. Saray, Ariadna, and Ashley—trans women from different ethnicities—travel to Leticia to compete for the crown. Between rehearsals and memories, their pursuit of becoming “The Queen of Amazonas” transforms into a powerful act of resistance and an intimate portrait of the Amazon’s boundless diversity.

THE QUEEN OF AMAZONAS / LA REINA DEL AMAZONAS
