Following 26-year-old Madison during a crucial three years of her transition from male to female, GIRL INSIDE is a beautiful film that tracks her emotional, intellectual and spiritual journey of self-discovery that is as important as \u2013 if not more than \u2013 the physical journey of hormones and surgery. Sharing the spotlight is Vivien, Madison\u2019s glamorous 80-year-old grandmother, who has taken on the job of advising her on all things feminine. While Vivien’s attempts to school Madison in old-fashioned codes of fashion and behavior are often hilarious, the juxtaposition of two vastly different experiences of womanhood, from very different generations, raises profound issues about the nature of gender, femininity and sexuality. Sometimes funny, sometimes painful, this heartwarming coming of age story is both an intimate portrait and a thoughtful exploration of what it means to be a woman. Recommended for courses in transgender and queer studies, gender studies, women\u2019s studies and sociology.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":18359,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_oasis_is_in_workflow":0,"_oasis_original":0,"ep_exclude_from_search":false,"footnotes":""},"languages":[],"countries":[742],"film_categories":[1193,1195],"master_copies":[],"pricing_grid":[],"press_types":[],"class_list":["post-18353","film","type-film","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","countries-ca-fr","film_categories-genre-fr","film_categories-lgbtq2siap-queer-fr"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
