ZUHURS TÖCHTER
Deutschland 2021 – Director: Laurentia Genske, Robin Humboldt – Original language: Arabic, English, German – Subtitles: English, German, None – Length: 89 min.
With charm, style and a great strength of character, two trans women allow us deep insights into their life. An intimate and sensitive coming-of-age film about the search for one's identity in a world that transcends the cis-heteronormative society that still adheres to two genders.
