Gender Justice League
Cora Bissett & Louise Lockwood; 2021; United Kingdom; 59 min.
Adam Kashmiry plays the role of himself in this remarkable story of a young trans man and his struggle to live freely across genders and borders. Trapped with no way to describe this feeling, in a place where falling in love with the wrong person can get you killed, he knew he had to escape. What followed was beyond his wildest dreams: an epic odyssey from Egypt to Scotland for the right to be the boy he knew himself to be. This multi-award-winning stage play has been reinvented as a compelling on-screen drama charting Adam’s choice to begin his journey.
