In this poignant documentary, "Paper Dolls," Filipinos transitioning to female personas find solace and acceptance as caregivers for elderly Jewish men in Israel. By day, they nurture their charges; by night, they don drag and sashay through Tel Aviv's clubs as a troupe of outcasts-turned-outlaws, searching for freedom and belonging amidst a society that both welcomes and rejects them.
