My Dad, Stephanie is a raw and intimate documentary that dives deep into the life of Phil, who at 71, comes out as Stephanie. It's shot over five years by her daughter and son-in-law, which gives it a personal and unfiltered lens. The pacing feels very organic, almost like a home movie, capturing the little moments that showcase the complexities of family dynamics and identity. The film doesn't shy away from the emotional weight of transition and acceptance, and you can really feel the struggle and triumph through Stephanie's journey. It's not polished and that's what makes it real; the performances are genuine, filled with warmth and vulnerability that resonate throughout the viewing experience. The atmosphere is honest, making it distinctively poignant in its approach to a topic that was still relatively misunderstood at the time.
