A Vida dos Sonhos de Georgie Stone

Only the most close-minded people could be offended by this story. Maya Newell, a director with experience of transgender issues, has shown us some insight into a remarkable young girl/lady. We are lucky that there is footage of 9 year old Georgie sharing parts of her story enabling us to see the dilemma and the trauma that trans kids can feel. The contributions from her parents and twin brother, although brief, help build that story. But Georgie is the real superstar - a young lady who put herself through a court case that had the potential to change the lives for the better of thousands of kids. No spoiler - watch the doco to see whether she was successful. I highly recommend this short film, created over ten years, and handled with great sensitivity.
