Trans FeminismFilms

Saim Sadiq’s Lahore family drama follows a married man drawn to a trans dancer, but its feminist force lies in tracing how patriarchal duty frustrates the desires of everyone sharing the household.

Written, directed, edited by, and starring Isabel Sandoval, this film brings trans identity, immigration status, care work, and intimacy into one fragile story of a Filipina caregiver in New York.

A trans woman’s struggle to grieve her partner becomes a precise study of how families, medicine, police, and property law decide whose love and personhood are credible.

Adapted from Virginia Woolf's novel, this tells the legendary life story of immortal aristocrat Orlando spanning four centuries, experiencing a gender transformation from male to female during this journey. This pioneering work explores gender fluidity, identity formation, and patriarchal oppression of women through poetic cinematic language.
