Lying in Bed Alone, Breathing is a fascinating exploration of gender dysphoria, deeply personal and raw. The film's tone is reflective, capturing both the internal struggles and the external realities faced by the subject. It's shot in a way that feels almost intimate, like you're peeking into someone’s diary. The pacing can be contemplative, which might not appeal to everyone, but it serves the themes well. The use of audio description and open captions adds an interesting layer, making it feel like a conversation rather than a one-sided narrative. It's a distinctive entry in the documentary genre, focusing on the nuances of identity, and the practicality of its effects, especially in sound and visual storytelling, positions it apart from typical documentaries.
