My Trans Story: Alice

About This Movie

My Trans Story: Alice is a raw and heartfelt documentary that explores the life of a Brighton-based trans woman rediscovering her identity. The pacing feels almost conversational, letting Alice's experiences breathe as she reflects on her journey. The film captures that sense of a second youth beautifully, showing her rekindled dreams and aspirations. There's a certain warmth in the atmosphere, with practical effects kept to a minimum, emphasizing authenticity over gloss. One standout aspect is Alice's performance; it feels real, unfiltered, like she’s inviting you into her world rather than performing for you. It’s distinctive in how it tackles themes of transition and self-acceptance, without veering into melodrama. A quietly powerful piece worth noting.
