PLOT
Gloria and Carmen are women whose life stories are quite different yet both shaped by the same struggle. Gloria has spent over forty years hiding her identity, even reaching the extreme of enlisting in the army in search of a “virile” environment. Now that she is beginning her transition, it is difficult for her to face her family and society, in a precarious economic situation and struggling to find work. Carmen, by contrast, decided to express herself as a woman from an early age and assume the consequences of this decision. She proposes reclaiming the memory of transgender people repressed throughout history, through a theatre play. The documentary likewise offers a voice to others involved in the struggle for transgender rights, including a young generation taking up the veterans’ baton, expressing themselves with freedom on social media, in a society just starting to become aware. Here it is, the trans resistance.
