Trapped In Transit: Transgender Storytelling with Visionary Filmmakers Aitch Alberto and Sydney Freeland
At a time of increased anti-trans sentiment, propaganda, legislation, and violence, how can storytelling help us materialize the necessary conditions for trans people to survive and thrive? Furthermore, how can storytelling help compel cisgender people to show up for transgender people? In conjunction with the Trans Possibilities Intensive, and moderated by Sundance Institute Equity, Impact, and Belonging Manager and Trans Possibilities Intensive Founder, Moi Santos, this exclusive conversation with esteemed filmmakers Sydney Freeland (Drunktown’s Finest) and Aitch Alberto (Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe) interrogates trans cultural production and representation – its limits and its liberties, its comforts and its confines.
