Lesbians vs Trans: A Rallying Cry for Unity
Transit of Venus is a film about grieving, about how we are haunted by people and events in our lives that we can’t control. And our need to let go. My oldest and dearest lifelong friend, a beautiful, strong, loving and funny artist was a trans woman who took her own life and this is my […]

The Conundrum of the ‘Femme’ Lesbian
