What Is Transsexuals About?

The premise of Transsexuals without spoilers.

In 1971 a group of New York City students learning video technology filmed a short documentary with Deborah Hartin. After more than two decades living as a man, Hartin traveled to Casablanca for gender‑affirmation surgery she had long sought, even after a failed self‑procedure. Joined by recently post‑operative activist Esther Reilly and other transgender community members, she explains how the operation transformed her body, life and activism.
