Director Adrián Silvestre partners with co-writer and lead actress Raphaëlle Perez to create a colorful, layered portrait of a life in flux.
Working in a call center in Barcelona after relocating from France, sensitive dreamer Raphi works through her recent diagnosis of gender dysphoria. Through it all — embarrassing dates, adapting to the rhythms of a new life, candid conversations with an exuberant support group of multigenerational trans women — Raphi chases after an elusive image of modern love that continually shifts and surprises her.
With a star-making performance by Raphaëlle Pérez, this narrative feature debut is a romantic and illuminating story of one woman’s transfeminine experience and an invigorating cinematic experience, destined to become a queer classic.
“Highly Recommended. This film is a valuable addition to a Spanish film collection, but it also transcends language and culture by centering the narrative of trans people as the storytellers of their own lives, presenting an authentic perspective that resonates universally.” – Audra M. Deemer, Head of Acquisitions & Collections, DePaul University, EMRO
“Made with a rare sensitivity and compassion, My Emptiness and I is a study, at once muted and lacerating, of the search for validation of a young trans woman in a world which can offer her no ready-made identities to choose from. Built around a superb, challenging central performance by Raphaëlle Perez, the understated Emptiness seems destined to... confirm Adrián Silvestre as one of Spain’s standout new directorial talents.” – Jonathan Holland, Screendaily
“A beautiful film, unstable and always very conscious of occupying that perfect place between the sublime and, indeed, the ridiculous. Always maximal.” – Luis Martínez, El Mundo
“The world of digital dating and hookup apps, where each profile offers a representation of oneself, on display in a virtual shop window, is a crucial element of the plot of this film, which calls into question the categories, stereotypes and labels that can constitute obstacles on the road towards fully blossoming in one’s life.” – Alfonso Rivera, Cineuropa

00:00:38.170 --> 00:00:38.620
Come.
00:00:45.330 --> 00:00:46.740
Are you horny?
00:00:55.180 --> 00:00:56.330
Are you OK?
00:00:58.130 --> 00:00:59.170
Sure?
00:01:01.080 --> 00:01:03.620
Relax, relax, hey, relax.
00:01:06.200 --> 00:01:07.260
What\'s wrong?
00:01:11.360 --> 00:01:14.630
Relax, relax. We\'re here.
00:01:17.710 --> 00:01:19.930
Hey, what\'s wrong?
00:01:20.040 --> 00:01:22.030
Rafa man, what\'s wrong?
00:01:26.610 --> 00:01:28.830
Relax, don\'t worry.
00:01:37.250 --> 00:01:41.050
My Emptiness and I
00:01:41.400 --> 00:01:43.340
What is your female name?
00:01:44.140 --> 00:01:45.830
My female name?
00:01:46.000 --> 00:01:48.320
- Do you have a female name?
- No.
00:01:50.130 --> 00:01:53.640
And if you had one? What would it be?
00:01:56.280 --> 00:01:58.540
I don\'t know.
I\'ve never thought about it.
00:01:59.240 --> 00:02:03.430
Okay, so I\'ll put Raphael, Okay?
00:02:03.600 --> 00:02:09.130
If you want put Raphaëlle with LL and E,
which is the female version in French.
00:02:09.480 --> 00:02:10.870
- ¿With F or...?
- PH.
00:02:10.980 --> 00:02:12.070
PH.
00:02:12.970 --> 00:02:14.860
Rapha... ëlle.
00:02:14.970 --> 00:02:18.660
- LL and E at the end.
- LL and E at the end.
00:02:18.770 --> 00:02:20.350
- \"Raphael\"?
- Raphaëlle.
00:02:20.460 --> 00:02:21.590
Oh, Raphaëlle.
00:02:21.700 --> 00:02:24.660
Okay, so... it sounds the same
in masculine and feminine.
00:02:24.770 --> 00:02:25.930
Alright.
00:02:27.610 --> 00:02:29.940
How do you define yourself?
00:02:30.550 --> 00:02:31.940
What do you mean
how do I define myself?
00:02:32.040 --> 00:02:33.550
I mean, um...
00:02:33.800 --> 00:02:36.190
You define yourself:
I am a boy, I am a girl...
00:02:36.300 --> 00:02:38.270
- I\'m a boy, of course.
- I\'m a boy.
00:02:38.380 --> 00:02:40.420
And how do you feel?
00:02:42.340 --> 00:02:45.740
What do you mean how do I feel?
I don\'t understand these questions.
00:02:46.280 --> 00:02:49.530
There\'s a difference.
One thing is how do you define yourself.
00:02:49.790 --> 00:02:52.880
You name yourself. Another thing
is how you feel more intimately.
00:02:52.990 --> 00:02:56.290
If you close your eyes
and you let yourself feel...
00:02:56.700 --> 00:03:00.360
Do you feel like a girl?
Do you feel like a girl or a boy?
00:03:00.470 --> 00:03:04.140
Well, what is feeling like a girl
or feeling like a boy? I don\'t...
00:03:04.250 --> 00:03:07.080
It\'s something very deep and intimate.
I can\'t answer that for you.
00:03:07.190 --> 00:03:09.420
Well, neither can I.
00:03:09.530 --> 00:03:11.420
Okay, don\'t answer that.
00:03:11.530 --> 00:03:14.040
But I see that you go around
dressed like a woman.
00:03:14.670 --> 00:03:15.580
Well, yes...
00:03:15.690 --> 00:03:17.980
Do you usually
dress like a woman?
00:03:18.080 --> 00:03:21.860
When I was studying in Paris
I did dress like a woman.
00:03:22.430 --> 00:03:24.970
I don\'t know, I like feminine clothes.
00:03:26.040 --> 00:03:30.700
Alright, I\'ll note that down. Okay.
00:03:31.400 --> 00:03:34.040
Moving on to the more intimate
questions.
00:03:34.860 --> 00:03:37.100
What did you play with
when you were little?
00:03:38.690 --> 00:03:41.900
- With dolls.
- Dolls.
00:03:45.180 --> 00:03:46.940
How did you pee?
00:03:48.390 --> 00:03:50.620
- Sitting.
- Sitting.
00:03:56.390 --> 00:03:58.040
Did you wear a bra?
00:03:59.020 --> 00:04:00.200
No.
00:04:00.770 --> 00:04:01.880
You didn\'t pretend to...
00:04:01.990 --> 00:04:06.010
I know that when you\'re a child
you don\'t have breasts, but you pretend.
00:04:06.120 --> 00:04:08.000
Just like you played with dolls...
00:04:08.110 --> 00:04:09.660
- Did you wear one?
- No, no.
00:04:09.770 --> 00:04:10.780
No.
00:04:15.000 --> 00:04:16.250
Alright.
00:04:17.340 --> 00:04:19.170
How did you masturbate?
00:04:23.870 --> 00:04:26.050
I don\'t know what to say.
00:04:26.160 --> 00:04:29.780
For example, when you masturbated,
did you look at yourself?
00:04:29.890 --> 00:04:31.180
- Did you look at your genitals?
- No.
00:04:31.290 --> 00:04:33.670
That was the question.
00:04:33.780 --> 00:04:36.790
To know if you did it
with the lights on or in the dark.
00:04:36.900 --> 00:04:41.710
So you could look at yourself
or not. That was the question.
00:04:41.820 --> 00:04:44.430
Those were
the most difficult questions.
00:05:00.970 --> 00:05:03.930
Wait, let me start the update.
00:05:06.500 --> 00:05:12.150
OK. I have to do a synchronisation
that will take thirty minutes...
00:05:12.260 --> 00:05:15.510
and in thirty minutes
you should have the internet back.
00:05:15.620 --> 00:05:16.740
Okay?
00:05:23.980 --> 00:05:27.230
Please, stop insisting
or I will have to hang up.
00:05:29.700 --> 00:05:32.050
Okay fine, listen: goodbye.
00:05:39.070 --> 00:05:40.180
- Hello?
- Hello.
00:05:40.290 --> 00:05:42.400
- Hi, dad.
- Hi Rapha! How are you?
00:05:42.510 --> 00:05:45.660
- Fine, you?
- Fine.
00:05:45.770 --> 00:05:47.810
- Yeah?
- What\'s wrong? You sound strange.
00:05:47.920 --> 00:05:51.550
No, I just left the psychologist.
00:05:51.660 --> 00:05:52.950
And?
00:05:53.060 --> 00:05:54.740
So...
00:05:55.470 --> 00:05:58.440
She told me that...
00:05:59.300 --> 00:06:01.920
apparently, it\'s gender dysphoria.
00:06:03.640 --> 00:06:05.930
Gender dysphoria? What\'s that?
00:06:06.790 --> 00:06:12.330
I didn\'t quite understand because
I was in shock, but basically...
00:06:12.740 --> 00:06:14.540
She thinks that…
00:06:15.650 --> 00:06:19.890
Actually, she thinks that
I\'m a girl in a boy\'s body.
00:06:20.300 --> 00:06:22.330
That\'s it basically.
00:06:23.240 --> 00:06:24.730
Alright.
00:06:25.510 --> 00:06:30.620
So, what do you have to do?
00:06:31.480 --> 00:06:32.580
I don\'t really know.
00:06:32.680 --> 00:06:35.520
She talked about
a hormonal treatment, but...
00:06:35.620 --> 00:06:38.360
I don\'t know, it seems really...
00:06:38.460 --> 00:06:39.840
I feel like I have no choice.
00:06:39.940 --> 00:06:41.870
She just informed me...
00:06:41.970 --> 00:06:43.590
and now I have to make a decision.
00:06:43.690 --> 00:06:45.760
She\'s sending me
to the endocrinologist, but…
00:06:46.630 --> 00:06:49.030
I don\'t know. It seems...
00:06:49.630 --> 00:06:52.300
Sweetheart, in any case...
00:06:52.590 --> 00:06:56.400
we have to do something.
00:06:56.510 --> 00:06:58.200
Yes, but... do what?
00:07:43.650 --> 00:07:46.970
Gender Dysphoria
00:08:18.380 --> 00:08:22.380
DO YOU THINK I\'M A LEGITIMATE GIRL?
00:08:33.060 --> 00:08:34.620
LEGITIMATE FOR?
00:08:34.900 --> 00:08:38.380
THAT\'S FOR YOU TO DECIDE.
00:08:44.060 --> 00:08:45.420
YES
YOU\'RE RIGHT.
00:08:58.220 --> 00:09:01.340
#LOVEISINTHEAIR
BUT IT\'S BLOWING THE WRONG WAY
00:09:19.340 --> 00:09:23.480
Álex. According to his profile,
he\'s thirty years old.
00:09:23.960 --> 00:09:26.710
He\'s amazing. Look.
00:09:29.790 --> 00:09:30.940
He\'s handsome, right?
00:09:33.560 --> 00:09:35.120
It\'s just to take off a little bit.
00:09:35.230 --> 00:09:39.810
It happens to me too,
when I put on makeup at home,
00:09:39.920 --> 00:09:42.590
later I\'ll look at myself
in my car mirror,
00:09:42.700 --> 00:09:44.420
it\'s too much and
I have to remove it.
00:09:44.520 --> 00:09:45.450
It happens sometimes.
00:09:45.550 --> 00:09:47.450
Don\'t worry, I\'ll take it off.
00:09:48.730 --> 00:09:49.740
Okay.
00:09:55.640 --> 00:09:56.820
- Raphi?
- Hi.
00:09:56.930 --> 00:09:58.310
Hi, I\'m Alex.
00:09:59.130 --> 00:10:00.890
How are you?
Sorry I\'m late.
00:10:01.000 --> 00:10:04.290
- Fine, and you?
- Fine, have you been waiting long?
00:10:04.400 --> 00:10:06.050
- No, not at all.
- Okay. Okay.
00:10:07.460 --> 00:10:10.160
- Where are you from?
- I\'m French.
00:10:10.270 --> 00:10:12.510
- Yes, you have an accent.
- Yes, horrible, right?
00:10:12.620 --> 00:10:15.800
No, come on, I love it.
I lived in Paris.
00:10:15.910 --> 00:10:19.330
- Whereabouts in France?
- I was born in Perpignan.
00:10:19.750 --> 00:10:22.460
- What do you do?
- I\'m a musician.
00:10:22.570 --> 00:10:25.340
- Musician? Wow.
- Yes.
00:10:25.450 --> 00:10:27.360
- How cool is that.
- I play the guitar.
00:10:27.470 --> 00:10:31.080
- I have an Indie band, in Catalan.
- Cool!
00:10:31.190 --> 00:10:34.880
Yes, it\'s really nice.
And you? You\'re also really creative.
00:10:34.990 --> 00:10:38.680
Well, yes. I write sometimes...
00:10:38.790 --> 00:10:41.710
- Do you write too?
- Yes, I write.
00:10:42.420 --> 00:10:46.040
I like a lot of things.
00:10:46.490 --> 00:10:49.170
I like art in general,
photography, fashion, but...
00:10:49.280 --> 00:10:50.050
Of course, fashion.
00:10:50.160 --> 00:10:52.580
Why did you choose to be
a designer or...?
00:10:52.690 --> 00:10:55.410
Well, I’m not a designer.
I work in a call centre.
00:10:55.520 --> 00:10:57.550
- Well, still...
- Yeah, fashion...
00:10:57.660 --> 00:11:00.410
- Well... it\'s my passion
- Our job isn\'t who we are.
00:11:00.520 --> 00:11:05.100
- We are what we like.
- That\'s true. Yes, totally.
00:11:05.210 --> 00:11:08.920
Me too, I was into this
since I was little, and...
00:11:09.150 --> 00:11:11.470
Did you dress up as a child?
00:11:11.580 --> 00:11:14.340
- I imagine...
- With my mother\'s clothes.
00:11:14.630 --> 00:11:19.310
- Did you?
- Of course. I made up my stories...
00:11:19.730 --> 00:11:21.330
And you design your own...?
00:11:21.430 --> 00:11:23.580
Because it\'s really flamboyant,
but in a cool way.
00:11:23.790 --> 00:11:26.040
- Really? You like it?
- Yes.
00:11:26.150 --> 00:11:27.750
Nice. I\'m glad.
00:11:29.660 --> 00:11:30.970
What do you think of me?
00:11:31.080 --> 00:11:35.020
- I don\'t know, I like yours too.
- Yeah?
00:11:35.130 --> 00:11:36.530
Yes, a lot...
00:11:36.810 --> 00:11:40.320
- Musician look.
- Yeah, a bit. It suits you.
00:11:40.430 --> 00:11:41.610
Yeah.
00:11:53.310 --> 00:11:55.020
It\'s a bit late.
00:11:55.390 --> 00:11:57.340
- I have to go.
- Yeah?
00:11:57.450 --> 00:11:59.230
- Okay.
- It\'s a bit late for me.
00:11:59.550 --> 00:12:01.660
- Did you enjoy yourself?
- I did.
00:12:01.770 --> 00:12:03.480
- Yeah? Me too.
- Cool.
00:12:03.590 --> 00:12:06.760
- I really liked getting to know you.
- Thank you, me too.
00:12:08.830 --> 00:12:12.590
Well, it\'s a shame that
you\'re leaving alone like this.
00:12:13.000 --> 00:12:15.780
Well, if you want
to tell me something more...
00:12:15.890 --> 00:12:19.010
What?
What do you want me to tell you?
00:12:20.070 --> 00:12:21.890
Something about you,
I don\'t know.
00:12:22.000 --> 00:12:25.090
Like what?
I don\'t know. What do you want to know?
00:12:26.210 --> 00:12:29.720
Well.
I\'ve always been with girls.
00:12:31.070 --> 00:12:35.410
I mean, with \"girls-girls\".
That were born girls.
00:12:37.850 --> 00:12:40.920
So I\'m...
00:12:41.170 --> 00:12:42.470
I mean, it doesn\'t bother me.
00:12:42.570 --> 00:12:44.610
But I didn\'t know
if you wanted to tell me.
00:12:48.440 --> 00:12:50.780
I don\'t know what to tell you, I mean...
00:12:50.890 --> 00:12:52.830
Yes, I was born...
00:12:54.250 --> 00:12:57.950
a boy
but it doesn\'t make me less of a girl.
00:12:58.060 --> 00:13:01.050
- I mean, I don\'t think so.
- No, of course.
00:13:03.640 --> 00:13:04.740
I don\'t know.
00:13:06.410 --> 00:13:09.180
- See you another day?
- Yes.
00:13:16.910 --> 00:13:19.020
- Well, I\'m leaving.
- Okay.
00:13:19.130 --> 00:13:20.690
- Take care.
- Take care.
00:13:20.800 --> 00:13:22.200
- Bye.
- We\'ll talk, okay?
00:13:22.310 --> 00:13:23.820
Okay, perfect.
00:13:40.290 --> 00:13:42.730
That\'s it! Wow!
00:13:43.370 --> 00:13:44.920
Come on!
00:13:45.960 --> 00:13:48.230
Much better!
00:13:48.360 --> 00:13:50.640
That\'s how I like it! Good, Raphi!
00:13:50.750 --> 00:13:54.410
I want you to push harder.
00:13:55.550 --> 00:13:59.000
Okay, let\'s turn around, Sexy!
00:14:00.050 --> 00:14:05.180
That\'s it, loosen your shoulders...
A little bigger.
00:14:05.290 --> 00:14:08.770
That\'s it! This is almost over.
00:14:09.180 --> 00:14:13.110
And each time
we raise our arms, we yell.
00:14:16.050 --> 00:14:17.410
I can\'t hear you!
00:14:17.640 --> 00:14:21.620
- How are you feeling?
- Fine, honestly. I\'m fine.
00:14:21.730 --> 00:14:23.190
You look really good.
00:14:23.770 --> 00:14:28.060
Have you noticed any side effects
since the treatment started?
00:14:28.170 --> 00:14:31.430
At first, yes.
A lot of mood swings.
00:14:32.110 --> 00:14:36.230
Everything affected me,
I cried without knowing why...
00:14:36.550 --> 00:14:40.190
Things like that.
And now, I\'m getting used to it,
00:14:40.300 --> 00:14:42.300
and I\'m doing better.
00:14:42.410 --> 00:14:44.360
You are dealing with your emotions
00:14:44.470 --> 00:14:48.720
All these changes
are normal with oestrogens.
00:14:48.830 --> 00:14:49.720
Alright.
00:14:49.830 --> 00:14:52.720
It is clear that
you look a lot more feminine.
00:14:52.830 --> 00:14:55.000
- Thank you.
- The analysis is correct.
00:14:55.110 --> 00:14:57.000
I think it\'s the perfect time
00:14:57.110 --> 00:14:59.820
to have your first meeting
with the surgeon.
00:15:00.100 --> 00:15:02.090
- What do you think?
- With the surgeon?
00:15:02.200 --> 00:15:03.240
Yes.
00:15:05.910 --> 00:15:07.570
It would be the first visit.
00:15:07.680 --> 00:15:11.380
Have you seriously thought
about reassignment?
00:15:13.290 --> 00:15:15.630
Well, it seems really early.
00:15:15.740 --> 00:15:18.330
I mean, I\'m not...
00:15:19.000 --> 00:15:20.530
at that stage yet.
00:15:22.010 --> 00:15:25.360
- Let me tell you, you\'re at this stage.
- What do you mean?
00:15:25.470 --> 00:15:28.000
You\'ve done the whole treatment
for a year...
00:15:28.110 --> 00:15:29.860
One year seems very little to me.
00:15:30.170 --> 00:15:32.120
But, have you made a decision?
00:15:33.090 --> 00:15:34.330
Not yet.
00:15:36.510 --> 00:15:40.390
Have you had any sexual intercourse
this year?
00:15:40.830 --> 00:15:42.630
- No.
- No.
00:15:43.610 --> 00:15:44.740
Alright.
00:15:47.250 --> 00:15:48.610
Let\'s see...
00:15:50.430 --> 00:15:54.540
I think I can give you
two or three months
00:15:54.650 --> 00:15:57.720
so you can make
an informed decision
00:15:57.830 --> 00:15:59.740
of what you really want to do.
00:16:00.720 --> 00:16:03.560
- I\'ll explain.
- I know what I want right now.
00:16:03.670 --> 00:16:04.910
What do you want?
00:16:05.980 --> 00:16:08.220
I want to meet a man
who loves me as I am
00:16:08.330 --> 00:16:10.790
without having to change, that\'s it.
00:16:10.900 --> 00:16:11.920
Right.
00:16:13.240 --> 00:16:15.300
Can I give you a personal advice
00:16:15.410 --> 00:16:18.920
supported by years of experience
in this department?
00:16:20.490 --> 00:16:25.090
If you continue to have
a male sexual organ,
00:16:25.200 --> 00:16:27.880
you\'ll be fetishized
00:16:27.990 --> 00:16:30.670
by the majority of the men you meet
00:16:30.780 --> 00:16:33.790
and you\'ll probably feel
like a sex object.
00:16:33.900 --> 00:16:35.710
I\'m not really sure.
00:16:36.380 --> 00:16:38.580
Unfortunately, that\'s how it is.
00:16:38.690 --> 00:16:40.970
Some won\'t, but that\'s the usual.
00:16:41.450 --> 00:16:45.340
If it\'s okay for you, let\'s see
each other again in a few months.
00:16:45.450 --> 00:16:46.910
- Okay.
- Meanwhile, continue
00:16:47.020 --> 00:16:49.610
with the hormone treatment
like you\'ve been doing
00:16:49.720 --> 00:16:51.930
and try to have sexual intercourse
00:16:52.040 --> 00:16:53.800
to see what happens, how you feel.
00:16:53.910 --> 00:16:56.140
- Where you stand.
- Okay.
00:16:56.240 --> 00:16:59.920
FRENCH, ROMANTIC AND TRANS.
00:17:00.800 --> 00:17:03.170
WOW! YOU DON\'T LOOK TRANS.
00:17:04.420 --> 00:17:07.640
- WHAT DO I LOOK LIKE THEN?
- A GIRL.
00:17:07.750 --> 00:17:09.030
Raphaëlle.
00:17:12.460 --> 00:17:13.960
HAVE YOU HAD SURGERY?
00:17:14.220 --> 00:17:15.700
NO
00:17:16.800 --> 00:17:18.480
THEN WHY DON\'T YOU LOOK FOR A GIRL?
00:17:18.620 --> 00:17:21.080
BECAUSE I\'M STRAIGHT
00:17:22.020 --> 00:17:23.560
THAT TURNS ME ON
00:17:23.740 --> 00:17:25.100
TURNS YOU ON?
00:17:25.260 --> 00:17:26.460
THE UNKNOWN
00:17:26.620 --> 00:17:28.400
I\'M NOT AN ALIEN
00:17:34.880 --> 00:17:35.800
Hello.
00:17:36.170 --> 00:17:37.390
- Hello.
- You\'re Aitor, right?
00:17:37.500 --> 00:17:39.470
- Yes, and you are Raphi?
- Yes.
00:17:39.580 --> 00:17:41.740
- How are you?
- Fine, and you?
00:17:41.850 --> 00:17:43.020
I\'m fine, too.
00:17:44.970 --> 00:17:48.090
You look definitely better in person
00:17:48.240 --> 00:17:49.780
compared to your photos.
00:17:49.880 --> 00:17:53.930
Really? that\'s a compliment,
thank you.
00:17:58.150 --> 00:18:00.570
- You seem nervous.
- No.
00:18:00.680 --> 00:18:02.090
- Aren\'t you?
- No.
00:18:02.780 --> 00:18:03.830
Okay.
00:18:05.190 --> 00:18:07.810
But are you okay?
You seem...
00:18:07.920 --> 00:18:10.180
very closed off.
Is there something wrong?
00:18:10.290 --> 00:18:12.710
No, I\'m fine, it\'s...
00:18:14.000 --> 00:18:16.500
Nothing... stuff.
You know.
00:18:16.770 --> 00:18:19.280
- Work stuff...
- You can tell me if you need to.
00:18:19.390 --> 00:18:20.920
I don\'t want to see you so...
00:18:21.030 --> 00:18:24.620
I don\'t know you well enough
to tell you all that.
00:18:24.730 --> 00:18:27.470
I don\'t know, I don\'t want
to burden you.
00:18:27.580 --> 00:18:30.030
Me too, I\'m nervous.
00:18:30.140 --> 00:18:32.460
- Maybe you can\'t tell but...
- Doesn\'t seem like it.
00:18:32.570 --> 00:18:33.330
Well, I am.
00:18:33.440 --> 00:18:36.030
It seems like
you do it every day.
00:18:37.220 --> 00:18:38.220
Well.
00:18:38.330 --> 00:18:39.490
Do you usually
00:18:40.350 --> 00:18:43.620
meet up with people
on these kinds of apps to fuck?
00:18:46.330 --> 00:18:49.420
- I don\'t know.
- What do you mean, you don\'t know?
00:18:50.010 --> 00:18:53.910
I\'m looking for boys.
But then meeting up is more difficult.
00:18:56.300 --> 00:18:59.230
Why?
On your side or theirs?
00:19:00.010 --> 00:19:02.110
No, on theirs.
00:19:02.430 --> 00:19:05.040
- Oh really? Why?
- Yes.
00:19:06.260 --> 00:19:07.880
Well...
00:19:11.310 --> 00:19:12.700
I don\'t really know.
00:19:16.380 --> 00:19:19.060
You don\'t really know
or you don\'t want to tell me?
00:19:20.350 --> 00:19:23.810
Well, you can imagine it, can\'t you?
I\'m not gonna draw you a picture.
00:19:24.490 --> 00:19:25.530
Well.
00:19:26.670 --> 00:19:30.070
Let\'s say I don\'t have
a lot of imagination. Tell me.
00:19:31.130 --> 00:19:34.170
No, tell me about you.
Tell me something about yourself.
00:19:34.540 --> 00:19:38.200
You haven\'t even told me where you live,
or what\'s your job. You are the mystery.
00:19:38.310 --> 00:19:41.240
For me, the most important thing
is to be safe, okay?
00:19:41.770 --> 00:19:44.040
Be safe?
What are you talking about?
00:19:44.150 --> 00:19:47.280
I\'m saying this because you told me
I should buy the condoms.
00:19:47.390 --> 00:19:50.380
I thought maybe sometimes
you don\'t use condoms.
00:19:50.490 --> 00:19:52.480
- Do you use condoms?
- What? Of course.
00:19:52.590 --> 00:19:53.740
Okay.
00:19:55.000 --> 00:19:57.740
Isn\'t it normal for me to ask you that?
00:19:58.110 --> 00:20:00.060
- Yes.
- You are the one who\'s gonna wear them.
00:20:00.710 --> 00:20:05.100
Yeah well, I don\'t know.
But If I didn\'t buy them, then what?
00:20:48.260 --> 00:20:50.330
- Is anyone here?
- I don\'t know.
00:20:51.210 --> 00:20:52.330
Come.
00:21:10.880 --> 00:21:14.220
- Nice room.
- Yeah? Thanks.
00:21:28.960 --> 00:21:31.340
- Ready?
- Yes.
00:23:14.280 --> 00:23:17.420
- What\'s wrong?
- It hurts.
00:23:18.410 --> 00:23:20.630
- A little more gentle?
- Yes.
00:24:07.820 --> 00:24:08.930
What\'s wrong?
00:24:17.430 --> 00:24:19.450
- Should we continue?
- No!
00:24:37.850 --> 00:24:39.490
Where\'s the bathroom?
00:24:39.930 --> 00:24:41.690
That way, behind.
00:25:29.160 --> 00:25:30.890
- I\'m gonna go, okay?
- Okay.
00:25:31.610 --> 00:25:35.180
I want the surgery,
but I\'m really lost.
00:25:35.290 --> 00:25:37.210
Because I have many doubts,
00:25:37.480 --> 00:25:39.220
a lot of fear...
00:25:39.430 --> 00:25:42.230
Because if I get the surgery,
00:25:42.340 --> 00:25:46.220
I want to have a normal,
00:25:46.330 --> 00:25:49.650
and functional life,
that if I touch myself, I feel it,
00:25:49.930 --> 00:25:50.990
and everything else.
00:25:51.100 --> 00:25:53.300
In that sense,
I want to tell you that nowadays,
00:25:53.410 --> 00:25:55.310
with almost any surgeon
00:25:55.410 --> 00:25:58.810
you will have
the sensibility issue solved.
00:25:59.390 --> 00:26:04.060
If you\'ve had
a more or less fulfilling sex life,
00:26:04.170 --> 00:26:05.250
as much as possible.
00:26:05.470 --> 00:26:08.260
This will
surely benefit
00:26:08.410 --> 00:26:10.960
the sexuality after the vagina.
00:26:11.070 --> 00:26:12.360
And that\'s not up to the surgeon.
00:26:12.470 --> 00:26:15.890
That also depends on ourselves,
and it\'s one of the things
00:26:16.000 --> 00:26:20.110
that we try to work on here.
00:26:20.220 --> 00:26:22.840
The surgery also scares me a lot.
00:26:23.570 --> 00:26:25.100
It scares me
00:26:25.520 --> 00:26:27.370
because of what it is,
not because of the blood,
00:26:27.470 --> 00:26:29.860
or the operating room...
00:26:29.960 --> 00:26:31.790
I know nothing about the topic,
00:26:31.900 --> 00:26:35.340
and I\'m here because they told me
I\'d find the information
00:26:35.450 --> 00:26:39.150
I need to make a decision.
00:26:39.260 --> 00:26:41.320
I\'m going to ask you a question, Raphi.
00:26:41.720 --> 00:26:45.430
What are
your expectations
00:26:46.060 --> 00:26:47.710
for the vaginoplasty, at the moment?
00:26:47.820 --> 00:26:51.130
When you have a vagina,
the day you do,
00:26:51.660 --> 00:26:54.000
how do you imagine yourself?
00:26:56.330 --> 00:26:58.220
But I don\'t know if I want to have one.
00:26:58.330 --> 00:26:59.840
You don\'t know. Okay.
00:26:59.950 --> 00:27:02.860
- Not yet.
- You still don\'t know.
00:27:03.110 --> 00:27:04.300
Let me tell you something:
00:27:04.410 --> 00:27:07.080
when the time comes
you will be under anaesthesia
00:27:07.190 --> 00:27:09.050
and you won\'t feel a thing.
00:27:09.580 --> 00:27:13.870
We can all agree, I mean
everyone that has gone through it.
00:27:14.230 --> 00:27:17.050
At your age, I would say don\'t worry.
00:27:18.270 --> 00:27:21.260
You will go through
a physical transition
00:27:21.370 --> 00:27:23.170
that is permanent.
00:27:23.990 --> 00:27:28.410
So, give yourself time,
to know when you\'re ready.
00:27:28.520 --> 00:27:32.510
And the real fear
comes when you stop loving yourself.
00:27:32.670 --> 00:27:36.410
If you keep loving yourself,
I don\'t know why but the fear
00:27:36.520 --> 00:27:37.380
doesn\'t...
00:27:37.480 --> 00:27:41.230
But what\'s interesting
00:27:41.440 --> 00:27:44.430
is that, nowadays, you can say that.
00:27:44.540 --> 00:27:49.660
Before, in the 70\'s and 80\'s
00:27:49.770 --> 00:27:52.940
people with
00:27:53.870 --> 00:27:57.490
botched surgeries
didn\'t say anything.
00:27:58.140 --> 00:28:01.210
Because of the fear of being judged.
00:28:02.010 --> 00:28:05.120
Then, we have this one here,
also from Spain.
00:28:05.390 --> 00:28:08.950
We can see that the urinary tract
is very red.
00:28:09.060 --> 00:28:11.220
This is a sign of inflammation
00:28:11.430 --> 00:28:13.760
and possibly an infection
00:28:13.870 --> 00:28:16.220
and it\'s also facing up.
00:28:16.330 --> 00:28:19.650
So, the urine
comes out like a sprinkler
00:28:19.760 --> 00:28:21.510
sometimes, getting their clothes wet,
00:28:21.620 --> 00:28:24.500
even spraying outside
of the toilet. That could happen.
00:28:24.610 --> 00:28:26.980
Above, is the clitoris.
We can see it has
00:28:27.090 --> 00:28:32.940
labia minora and a very small hood
that doesn\'t really cover it.
00:28:33.050 --> 00:28:34.650
That\'s also missing.
00:28:35.370 --> 00:28:36.720
And this one here,
00:28:37.250 --> 00:28:38.840
is a necrosis.
00:28:38.950 --> 00:28:44.220
We can see
the tissue under the clitoris,
00:28:45.980 --> 00:28:49.340
with the corresponding fibrin
and the tissue badly stitched.
00:28:50.190 --> 00:28:55.550
They went back to surgery. And as
all the tissue underneath was damaged
00:28:55.660 --> 00:28:58.530
they faced the clitoris up,
I guess.
00:28:58.870 --> 00:29:01.210
They leave it out.
00:29:01.320 --> 00:29:02.920
That\'s really upsetting.
00:29:39.750 --> 00:29:41.640
- Hello.
- Hello, it\'s Raphi.
00:29:41.750 --> 00:29:42.900
Come in.
00:29:49.580 --> 00:29:50.630
The bass.
00:29:54.510 --> 00:29:56.740
- Your bass.
- I don\'t know how to sing it.
00:29:56.850 --> 00:29:58.460
No, here.
00:30:02.180 --> 00:30:04.610
Ladies, do you know
how to open the wine?
00:30:18.250 --> 00:30:20.430
Fucking hell, what\'s going on here?
00:30:21.180 --> 00:30:22.710
Do you want me to show it to you?
00:30:22.960 --> 00:30:23.940
You think?
00:30:24.040 --> 00:30:26.040
So you can see
what the surgery looks like.
00:30:26.140 --> 00:30:29.230
- Okay.
- Look.
00:30:31.230 --> 00:30:32.330
See?
00:30:32.720 --> 00:30:34.590
It\'s closed, you don\'t see anything,
that\'s how it\'s supposed to be
00:30:34.700 --> 00:30:40.000
because if you see the clitoris,
it can rub and cause problems.
00:30:40.110 --> 00:30:44.620
But if I open it, you can see
the hood of the clitoris, the clitoris,
00:30:45.670 --> 00:30:48.510
here\'s the urethra
and the vaginal opening underneath.
00:30:48.620 --> 00:30:50.920
- Okay.
- I like it a lot.
00:30:51.130 --> 00:30:52.760
Did you imagine it like this?
00:30:52.980 --> 00:30:56.350
I had no idea.
It\'s the first time.
00:30:58.790 --> 00:31:01.140
- Well, now you\'ve seen it.
- Well, yeah.
00:31:02.760 --> 00:31:04.990
Well, that\'s it.
00:31:05.100 --> 00:31:09.380
Other than the fact that I like it,
00:31:09.490 --> 00:31:11.960
it works well because I have orgasms...
00:31:12.070 --> 00:31:14.090
Oh, that\'s great.
That\'s the most important.
00:31:20.390 --> 00:31:22.880
- Raphi.
- Hello. Raphi, nice to meet you.
00:31:22.990 --> 00:31:25.970
Were you playing in our absence
to practice and beat us?
00:31:26.080 --> 00:31:28.810
- I\'m Raphi, nice to meet you.
- Who knows...
00:31:28.920 --> 00:31:32.730
Use your hand as if you\'re shooting
a rifle.
00:31:32.840 --> 00:31:34.010
Like this, don\'t move
00:31:34.320 --> 00:31:36.930
Try to hit it in the middle,
or it will jump.
00:31:37.040 --> 00:31:37.960
- Damn it.
- There.
00:31:38.070 --> 00:31:39.730
- Is it good now?
- Yes, hit it, but...
00:31:40.940 --> 00:31:43.930
- Almost.
- No, I\'m really bad, I\'m sorry ladies.
00:31:44.600 --> 00:31:46.090
I don\'t know how to play this.
00:31:46.360 --> 00:31:48.790
After a while, his friend says:
00:31:48.900 --> 00:31:50.310
You would get along with my friend.
00:31:50.420 --> 00:31:53.130
because he\'s a nature freak like you.
00:31:53.570 --> 00:31:57.690
And then we exchanged numbers,
we started talking,
00:31:57.800 --> 00:32:01.320
we started going to the mountains...
up until today.
00:32:01.470 --> 00:32:02.520
Cool.
00:32:02.720 --> 00:32:04.380
I fell in love on the first day,
00:32:04.490 --> 00:32:08.160
when he jumped
into the mud to see a salamander larva.
00:32:08.270 --> 00:32:10.660
When I saw him on the ground,
I thought: \"That\'s my man!\"
00:32:12.830 --> 00:32:16.230
Someone who dives
into the mud to see a salamander.
00:32:17.630 --> 00:32:19.030
That\'s beautiful.
00:32:19.370 --> 00:32:20.630
I\'m alone.
00:32:22.150 --> 00:32:25.900
But do you meet people?
Do you party?
00:32:27.280 --> 00:32:28.730
Or do you have...?
00:32:30.210 --> 00:32:33.940
I don\'t know.
I don\'t go out much.
00:32:34.890 --> 00:32:39.320
I\'m on Tinder,
like most of us,
00:32:40.570 --> 00:32:43.920
but Tinder grosses me out a bit, for us.
It\'s complicated, isn\'t it?
00:32:44.170 --> 00:32:48.030
Actually, since many boys
don\'t know I\'m trans
00:32:48.140 --> 00:32:51.980
one day, out of the blue,
I bring the topic up:
00:32:52.090 --> 00:32:56.350
\"Because, actually,
all of this gay and trans issues...\"
00:32:56.460 --> 00:32:58.820
And some people say:
00:32:58.930 --> 00:33:02.540
\"Yeah, those people that think
they\'re women\".
00:33:02.650 --> 00:33:04.730
And me:
\"Oh, interesting...\".
00:33:04.840 --> 00:33:07.930
Well because you pass.
00:33:08.840 --> 00:33:09.950
People are like that.
00:33:10.060 --> 00:33:14.280
Later, you go on a date,
they see you and they get scared.
00:33:14.390 --> 00:33:17.350
- And they can behave badly.
- But not with you.
00:33:17.460 --> 00:33:19.450
- I\'m sure they don\'t.
- It has happened to me.
00:33:19.900 --> 00:33:23.820
I think it\'s good
if you\'re on Tinder and you say:
00:33:23.930 --> 00:33:27.800
\"I\'m trans\". And whoever
wants to meet me, can add me.
00:33:27.910 --> 00:33:32.360
Yes, but there are many
who are interested in us for...
00:33:32.540 --> 00:33:35.380
well, for what I have.
Because you\'ve already...
00:33:35.490 --> 00:33:39.990
Oh, okay, that scenario.
That\'s very hard.
00:33:40.110 --> 00:33:42.950
Of course, if you write that
it becomes a sexual fetish.
00:33:43.260 --> 00:33:45.480
- Yeah.
- Like: \"Hi! I\'m a sex object.\"
00:33:45.590 --> 00:33:49.210
- Have you ever met people like that?
- Yes.
00:33:50.020 --> 00:33:52.040
When you bring it up,
is like: \"I don\'t know about this.\"
00:33:52.150 --> 00:33:56.680
There are three options:
it goes well, and they don\'t care.
00:33:56.790 --> 00:33:58.520
Two: they tell you to go to hell.
00:33:58.630 --> 00:34:02.700
Or three, they\'re really interested,
because of a sexual fetish.
00:34:02.810 --> 00:34:04.740
\"I never did this,
but I want to try.\"
00:34:04.850 --> 00:34:07.150
TALK TO ME LIKE YOU WOULD TALK
TO A CIS WOMAN.
00:34:16.540 --> 00:34:19.060
WHAT FILM ARE YOU PLAYING IN YOUR HEAD?
00:34:19.740 --> 00:34:21.320
FILM?
00:34:21.480 --> 00:34:23.660
ABOUT YOU BEING A WOMAN?
00:34:23.860 --> 00:34:25.580
AND YOU\'RE AN ASSHOLE
00:34:26.560 --> 00:34:28.320
A FAT PIECE OF SHIT
00:34:28.700 --> 00:34:30.280
HI
00:34:32.900 --> 00:34:34.760
CIS?
00:34:36.280 --> 00:34:37.820
HI
00:34:37.980 --> 00:34:39.340
TRANS
00:34:43.500 --> 00:34:46.580
#LOVEISINTHEAIR
AND I CAN\'T BREATHE
00:34:53.080 --> 00:34:57.730
I came back a week ago,
a little more, ten days ago.
00:34:57.840 --> 00:34:59.870
- Where were you before?
- I was in Madrid.
00:34:59.980 --> 00:35:02.630
For a while, for a project.
00:35:02.740 --> 00:35:07.430
And now, I\'m back in Barcelona,
and I\'m getting back on track.
00:35:08.270 --> 00:35:09.550
Nice.
00:35:09.660 --> 00:35:11.450
Do you like the neighbourhood,
your flat?
00:35:11.560 --> 00:35:13.660
Yes, it\'s fine.
I found a good place.
00:35:13.770 --> 00:35:17.070
- But until I organise everything...
- Little by little.
00:35:17.180 --> 00:35:19.320
It\'s a little stressful.
00:35:20.150 --> 00:35:23.930
- But it will work out.
- And what about work?
00:35:24.140 --> 00:35:25.600
What do you do?
00:35:25.710 --> 00:35:27.630
I work in the pharmaceutical industry.
00:35:28.940 --> 00:35:29.850
What\'s that about?
00:35:31.710 --> 00:35:36.520
It\'s a little hard to explain.
I design studies.
00:35:36.640 --> 00:35:40.030
I mean, I\'m not in the laboratory
with a lab coat.
00:35:41.000 --> 00:35:42.520
I design the studies that show
00:35:42.630 --> 00:35:45.880
the viability, the safety,
the efficiency of a medicine.
00:35:46.030 --> 00:35:51.090
To release a new drug,
or to develop a generic...
00:36:32.830 --> 00:36:34.670
Nowadays, the body
imposes itself as
00:36:34.770 --> 00:36:36.690
a predilection site
for the social discourse.
00:36:37.610 --> 00:36:40.220
What does that mean? The body...?
00:36:40.460 --> 00:36:42.540
\"These days, the body poses
as the
00:36:42.650 --> 00:36:45.390
preferred subject
of social discourse.\"
00:36:49.040 --> 00:36:51.210
Look!
They forgot to dress this one.
00:36:51.320 --> 00:36:52.710
No!
00:36:52.950 --> 00:36:56.120
It\'s to show
what the exhibition is about.
00:36:56.230 --> 00:36:58.360
About how fashion
modified the body.
00:36:58.470 --> 00:37:02.520
It shows how they used
bustles to make it bigger
00:37:02.630 --> 00:37:06.350
It was the beauty standard of the time.
00:37:06.460 --> 00:37:08.190
They had to have a big butt, or...
00:37:08.300 --> 00:37:09.830
- Of course.
- It wouldn\'t work.
00:37:10.870 --> 00:37:13.230
And these are from the 20\'s.
00:37:14.580 --> 00:37:16.100
\"Les années folles\", you know?
00:37:16.210 --> 00:37:17.640
- What?
- \"Les années folles.\"
00:37:17.750 --> 00:37:19.820
- Oh, yeah.
- That period.
00:37:19.930 --> 00:37:23.580
The straight lines,
women with no chest, no hips.
00:37:23.690 --> 00:37:26.390
Everything very straight and linear.
00:37:26.660 --> 00:37:28.680
I like it a lot.
00:37:28.790 --> 00:37:30.720
Very shiny too.
00:37:32.160 --> 00:37:33.330
What\'s wrong?
00:37:34.530 --> 00:37:35.550
Nothing.
00:39:17.640 --> 00:39:18.820
Are you okay?
00:39:19.800 --> 00:39:21.130
Don\'t worry.
00:39:21.600 --> 00:39:24.430
Come. Don\'t worry.
00:39:25.310 --> 00:39:29.030
Okay. It\'s over. I\'m sorry.
00:39:45.580 --> 00:39:49.000
I\'m sorry.
Can I do something? What do I do?
00:40:14.040 --> 00:40:16.060
The exhibition will last one month.
00:40:17.420 --> 00:40:19.730
Then the idea is
00:40:19.920 --> 00:40:22.440
taking it to other centres.
00:40:22.790 --> 00:40:25.310
I\'d like you to introduce yourselves
00:40:25.420 --> 00:40:28.240
and explain your work a little bit.
00:40:28.350 --> 00:40:32.130
Well, I\'ll start.
My name is Claudia, and I\'m a writer.
00:40:32.440 --> 00:40:36.910
I wanted to show
a poem that I wrote a few months ago,
00:40:37.020 --> 00:40:39.330
right when
I came out of the closet.
00:40:39.740 --> 00:40:42.450
I\'m looking forward to
00:40:42.560 --> 00:40:45.340
seeing it on these walls
and sharing it with people.
00:40:46.760 --> 00:40:48.270
It\'s my turn, right?
00:40:49.870 --> 00:40:53.820
My name is Raphi,
and I\'m from France.
00:40:55.430 --> 00:41:00.230
The truth is that, I don\'t know
what I\'m going to exhibit.
00:41:01.770 --> 00:41:07.170
We reached out to you because we saw
that you write on your Instagram.
00:41:07.280 --> 00:41:08.360
Yes.
00:41:08.470 --> 00:41:11.730
But if you want to do
something more performative.
00:41:12.030 --> 00:41:14.850
- Is that possible?
- Yes, whatever you want.
00:41:16.040 --> 00:41:18.520
Yeah, I don\'t know.
I thought of sharing some texts.
00:41:18.630 --> 00:41:23.320
But I don\'t know if you want
something really specific...
00:41:23.430 --> 00:41:25.460
Whatever you want to express,
00:41:25.570 --> 00:41:31.070
whatever you want to say,
without restraints or barriers.
00:41:31.180 --> 00:41:32.250
Okay.
00:42:02.530 --> 00:42:04.780
- Hi.
- How are you?
00:42:04.890 --> 00:42:06.660
- Fine, and you?
- Fine.
00:42:06.770 --> 00:42:08.300
- Yeah?
- Yeah.
00:42:08.670 --> 00:42:09.980
- What\'s that?
- White wine.
00:42:10.090 --> 00:42:12.670
- You didn\'t have to.
- Well, I really wanted to.
00:42:12.780 --> 00:42:15.020
- Perfect, come in.
- Thank you.
00:42:16.380 --> 00:42:17.890
How was your week? How did it go?
00:42:18.000 --> 00:42:21.380
Fine. It was busy.
00:42:21.540 --> 00:42:22.660
Cheers.
00:42:22.780 --> 00:42:23.820
How about you?
00:42:25.480 --> 00:42:28.230
Fine, it was calm.
It wasn\'t a crazy week.
00:42:28.830 --> 00:42:31.620
- You look very pretty.
- Thank you, you too.
00:42:35.080 --> 00:42:37.720
Well, I was a little worried
the other day.
00:42:39.080 --> 00:42:39.970
- Yeah, no...
- You feel better?
00:42:40.080 --> 00:42:41.730
- Yes.
- Yeah?
00:42:41.840 --> 00:42:43.710
- Yeah, don\'t worry.
- We didn\'t talk about it.
00:42:43.820 --> 00:42:45.710
- Yeah.
- I didn\'t know...
00:42:47.440 --> 00:42:48.140
Well, that\'s it.
00:42:48.250 --> 00:42:51.040
- Don\'t talk about it anymore.
- I will not.
00:42:51.530 --> 00:42:53.380
Okay, perfect.
00:43:35.230 --> 00:43:36.240
Do you want to?
00:43:37.900 --> 00:43:38.940
You don\'t?
00:43:39.900 --> 00:43:42.120
Okay, it\'s fine.
00:44:50.100 --> 00:44:51.690
- Good morning.
- Hi.
00:44:51.800 --> 00:44:53.210
- How are you?
- I\'m fine, you?
00:44:53.320 --> 00:44:55.530
- Fine. Did you sleep well?
- Yes.
00:45:03.820 --> 00:45:06.540
I don\'t think I have anything
for breakfast.
00:45:06.650 --> 00:45:07.890
- No?
- No.
00:45:13.900 --> 00:45:16.760
Nice.
Can we take a picture?
00:45:16.870 --> 00:45:19.990
- Of what?
- I don\'t know, a selfie.
00:45:20.610 --> 00:45:21.780
- If you want to.
- Can we?
00:45:21.890 --> 00:45:22.950
Yeah, of course.
00:45:23.230 --> 00:45:24.620
- Come on.
- On top of it?
00:45:31.630 --> 00:45:32.930
Come on.
00:46:04.050 --> 00:46:05.590
Don\'t look that much,
you look very pretty.
00:46:05.700 --> 00:46:06.880
- Are you sure?
- Yes.
00:46:06.990 --> 00:46:08.020
Okay.
00:46:08.690 --> 00:46:11.260
I don\'t know if this is my style.
00:46:11.370 --> 00:46:14.700
- You don\'t like it?
- No, it\'s cool but...
00:46:14.810 --> 00:46:16.670
- I have to think about it.
- Okay.
00:46:16.780 --> 00:46:18.520
- Hi, good morning.
- Hi, good morning.
00:46:18.630 --> 00:46:20.150
Can I help you with something?
00:46:20.260 --> 00:46:23.630
Well, we\'re just looking,
because I need to furnish
00:46:23.740 --> 00:46:26.210
my entire flat.
I\'ve just moved in nearby.
00:46:27.350 --> 00:46:31.610
Okay, if you need information
or you want to buy something...
00:46:32.030 --> 00:46:35.370
- Honey?
- I do want to buy!
00:46:35.610 --> 00:46:39.810
- Sofas? They\'re over there, right?
- Yes, sofas on that side.
00:46:40.850 --> 00:46:43.540
OMG! I love this one.
00:46:44.270 --> 00:46:46.530
- I love this one.
- No way!
00:46:47.480 --> 00:46:49.110
- Sit down.
- Let\'s see.
00:46:52.020 --> 00:46:54.730
- It\'s cool, isn\'t it?
- Very cool.
00:46:54.980 --> 00:46:58.340
- Where would you put this?
- I don\'t know, in the bathroom?
00:46:58.450 --> 00:47:00.020
In the bathroom?
00:47:01.370 --> 00:47:04.330
Well. I\'ll have to think about it.
00:47:05.320 --> 00:47:07.030
It\'s very original.
00:47:07.210 --> 00:47:09.150
- Very beautiful.
- Just original?
00:47:09.260 --> 00:47:10.940
- Well...
- Don\'t you like it?
00:47:11.050 --> 00:47:14.250
- You definitely like it more.
- I do. I love it!
00:47:31.370 --> 00:47:32.640
Do you want to come in?
00:47:34.010 --> 00:47:36.580
I\'d love to,
but if you don\'t mind
00:47:36.690 --> 00:47:39.060
I\'d rather use this time
to organise things
00:47:39.170 --> 00:47:41.060
before the weekend is over.
00:47:41.170 --> 00:47:44.970
Well, we could eat something.
We haven\'t eaten anything.
00:47:45.160 --> 00:47:46.170
Yeah...
00:47:47.980 --> 00:47:49.180
- You don\'t want to?
- I do, I\'d love to.
00:47:49.290 --> 00:47:50.570
But I\'d rather...
00:47:50.680 --> 00:47:54.670
Don\'t get upset,
but I have things to do...
00:47:54.780 --> 00:47:58.360
Okay. Me too,
I also have things to do...
00:47:58.470 --> 00:48:01.240
- Don\'t get upset.
- No, I\'m not upset, don\'t worry.
00:48:01.350 --> 00:48:04.330
- Really? You seem...
- No, it\'s fine.
00:48:05.110 --> 00:48:06.820
- You sure?
- Yeah, that\'s fine.
00:48:06.930 --> 00:48:09.250
- I\'ll call you.
- Yes, of course.
00:48:09.360 --> 00:48:11.820
- We had a good time, right?
- Absolutely, I loved it.
00:48:11.930 --> 00:48:14.920
So that\'s it, don\'t worry.
That\'s what we\'ll do, okay?
00:48:15.030 --> 00:48:16.600
- Okay.
- Perfect.
00:48:25.180 --> 00:48:26.880
- Thanks a lot.
- Thank you.
00:48:26.990 --> 00:48:29.010
- Hey, you better call me.
- I\'ll call you.
00:48:39.640 --> 00:48:43.410
Well, well, well! Welcome!
Trinitat Vella!
00:48:43.520 --> 00:48:45.240
A loud applause!
00:48:49.580 --> 00:48:51.720
Come on, come on!
00:48:53.320 --> 00:48:54.670
Of course.
00:48:54.780 --> 00:49:00.370
Welcome to the first LGBTI exhibition
of Trinitat Vella called
00:49:00.480 --> 00:49:02.060
\"The Collective.\"
00:49:02.170 --> 00:49:03.500
Come here, Raphaëlle, my love.
00:49:03.610 --> 00:49:05.020
- Can I call you Raphi?
- Yes, of course.
00:49:05.130 --> 00:49:07.920
Raphi, for friends. French?
00:49:08.030 --> 00:49:12.330
- Yes, you can tell?
- No, not at all. You\'re from Cadiz!
00:49:15.110 --> 00:49:18.040
You look totally from the south,
my love.
00:49:18.880 --> 00:49:20.570
What do you have for us, my love?
00:49:20.680 --> 00:49:24.090
I brought some collages
I made a little while ago.
00:49:24.290 --> 00:49:27.350
\"My Emptiness...\"
This is yours, right?
00:49:27.470 --> 00:49:28.330
Yes.
00:49:28.430 --> 00:49:31.350
Stop seeing what you don\'t want to see.
00:49:31.460 --> 00:49:34.020
So deep, girl!
Were you high?
00:49:35.780 --> 00:49:36.940
To love,
00:49:37.410 --> 00:49:41.870
to build a relationship, a house,
00:49:41.980 --> 00:49:43.230
a home,
00:49:43.760 --> 00:49:47.800
to plan, to have kids, lots of them,
00:49:47.910 --> 00:49:49.690
to be happy with them,
00:49:49.790 --> 00:49:52.310
to spoil them, to take care of them,
00:49:52.410 --> 00:49:53.500
to adore them,
00:49:53.790 --> 00:49:56.430
to have a simple and peaceful life,
00:49:56.890 --> 00:49:59.730
to have a life that\'s
full of joy and happiness.
00:50:00.190 --> 00:50:02.260
To stop being a weirdo.
00:50:02.540 --> 00:50:06.190
To enjoy and to write a better future.
00:50:06.300 --> 00:50:07.730
More beautiful.
00:50:12.950 --> 00:50:14.440
- Very good.
- Thank you.
00:50:19.350 --> 00:50:21.430
- I loved it.
- Really?
00:50:22.520 --> 00:50:25.110
Yes, because I\'m also a weirdo.
00:50:25.220 --> 00:50:26.330
In my own way.
00:50:26.440 --> 00:50:30.660
and what we have to do is surrender and
start living for once in this fucking
00:50:30.770 --> 00:50:34.120
life and society,
even if it\'s really hard,
00:50:34.230 --> 00:50:35.820
we aren\'t alone.
00:50:35.930 --> 00:50:37.630
We have \"The Dyke\"...
00:50:39.960 --> 00:50:42.250
The entire collective,
and not only the collective,
00:50:42.360 --> 00:50:44.950
people in the neighbourhood
we are getting closer to.
00:50:45.060 --> 00:50:47.840
Making ourselves heard and listened to.
00:50:47.950 --> 00:50:51.360
And although that respect
comes from just a few people,
00:50:51.470 --> 00:50:53.330
to feel
as if they were a thousand.
00:50:55.910 --> 00:50:59.810
He told me we were boys
that there were boys with tits.
00:50:59.920 --> 00:51:02.620
We look at each other\'s breasts.
00:51:02.810 --> 00:51:05.580
Before, our breasts
were two big spheres,
00:51:05.690 --> 00:51:07.860
and now, a mantle
of skin and textures.
00:51:07.970 --> 00:51:11.200
He told me we should
love our chest because it changes,
00:51:11.310 --> 00:51:14.220
takes on other forms,
another kind of softness,
00:51:14.320 --> 00:51:16.520
and it gives us another type of pleasure
00:51:16.730 --> 00:51:18.620
that no one speaks of.
00:51:19.110 --> 00:51:21.610
Now, he and I
get lost in their stretch marks,
00:51:21.720 --> 00:51:24.420
in the ninety centimetres
that are no longer there,
00:51:24.550 --> 00:51:26.330
in the story it tells,
00:51:26.440 --> 00:51:29.440
in the echo of our new masculinity.
00:51:30.610 --> 00:51:31.960
With our sex,
00:51:32.070 --> 00:51:33.870
with our spectrum,
00:51:33.980 --> 00:51:36.910
with our androgyny,
with our new scars,
00:51:37.020 --> 00:51:38.130
and with our feminine curves.
00:51:40.820 --> 00:51:44.030
This body is our landscape,
00:51:44.200 --> 00:51:45.830
and here we stay.
00:51:56.630 --> 00:51:59.220
I don\'t know. Everyone\'s work
seemed better.
00:52:00.030 --> 00:52:03.430
- Well...
- The poems?
00:52:03.960 --> 00:52:07.670
- Everything.
- You can\'t compare.
00:52:07.780 --> 00:52:10.600
Some of your collages
are really interesting.
00:52:10.710 --> 00:52:12.910
- Very powerful.
- Yes.
00:52:13.170 --> 00:52:15.900
You have to keep developing
more and more,
00:52:16.010 --> 00:52:20.890
because you have something
very interesting.
00:52:21.000 --> 00:52:23.350
Well, the one about the king
creeped me out a little...
00:52:23.460 --> 00:52:25.630
Excuse me, ladies.
00:52:26.040 --> 00:52:29.480
Raphaëlle meet Carles.
00:52:29.590 --> 00:52:31.760
He\'s a theatre director and
he wants talk to you about something.
00:52:31.870 --> 00:52:33.600
Okay, okay, great.
00:52:33.710 --> 00:52:36.990
- Hi, nice to meet you.
- Hi, Raphi, nice to meet you.
00:52:37.100 --> 00:52:38.500
- Congratulations.
- Thanks a lot.
00:52:38.610 --> 00:52:41.740
I loved it, it really touched me.
00:52:42.850 --> 00:52:46.440
- Well, excuse me, I\'m Carles.
- Anna.
00:52:47.130 --> 00:52:49.850
Maybe now isn\'t a good time.
00:52:50.460 --> 00:52:52.370
I have a theatre company.
00:52:52.470 --> 00:52:54.610
We are focused on documentary theatre.
00:52:54.710 --> 00:52:58.510
We work with people
that are not professional actors.
00:52:58.620 --> 00:53:01.410
I\'d like to get a coffee
with you one day and talk...
00:53:01.520 --> 00:53:05.100
- Yes, perfect.
- Yeah? I\'ll give you my card.
00:53:05.280 --> 00:53:07.830
- Call me one day.
- Okay, alright, great.
00:53:07.940 --> 00:53:10.370
Okay, here you go.
00:53:10.480 --> 00:53:12.550
- Great, thanks a lot.
- Take care.
00:53:12.660 --> 00:53:14.660
Thanks a lot, bye. Okay.
00:53:14.770 --> 00:53:20.150
Well, he didn\'t kiss me.
I don\'t know... how to take it.
00:53:43.180 --> 00:53:45.660
HI HANDSOME.
00:53:47.700 --> 00:53:49.660
HOW\'S YOUR WEEK?
00:54:05.700 --> 00:54:09.500
HEY. EVERYTHING\'S FINE. STRESSFUL.
00:54:12.060 --> 00:54:15.520
Yes, today I am a woman with a penis.
00:54:16.050 --> 00:54:18.310
Do I have to change it for a vagina?
00:54:18.750 --> 00:54:20.830
Would that make me more normal?
00:54:21.180 --> 00:54:23.520
Being normal is just a concept.
00:54:23.630 --> 00:54:25.880
Being normal doesn\'t mean anything.
00:54:26.360 --> 00:54:28.730
Normality doesn\'t exist.
00:54:28.900 --> 00:54:31.720
Every one of us is one of a kind.
00:54:32.340 --> 00:54:35.790
A penis doesn\'t have
to be a limit or an obstacle
00:54:35.900 --> 00:54:37.850
in a woman\'s life.
00:54:38.040 --> 00:54:41.980
We, trans people don\'t have to change
our bodies.
00:54:42.090 --> 00:54:43.520
All we have to change
00:54:43.630 --> 00:54:46.730
is how people
keeps perceiving us nowadays.
00:54:47.480 --> 00:54:49.130
That\'s the real cause,
00:54:49.250 --> 00:54:50.720
we have to fight for.
00:54:51.360 --> 00:54:53.200
- Exactly.
- Very good.
00:54:53.310 --> 00:54:56.220
- An applause.
- Thank you.
00:54:57.590 --> 00:54:59.020
Thanks a lot.
00:55:00.010 --> 00:55:02.510
For me, there was a sentence that
00:55:02.620 --> 00:55:06.170
disrupted me a little bit.
00:55:06.790 --> 00:55:11.580
When you say we don\'t need
to change our body.
00:55:11.690 --> 00:55:14.890
What we need to change
is how others see us.
00:55:15.000 --> 00:55:15.800
Exactly.
00:55:15.910 --> 00:55:19.260
Obviously,
the second part is correct,
00:55:19.370 --> 00:55:22.380
because social pressure exists.
00:55:22.490 --> 00:55:24.400
- Of course.
- But it exists for everybody.
00:55:24.510 --> 00:55:26.550
Even for queer people.
00:55:26.660 --> 00:55:29.140
Those queer people
that you just described here,
00:55:29.250 --> 00:55:30.830
where everyone is happy,
00:55:30.940 --> 00:55:35.210
everyone accepts themselves,
they don\'t have any problems.
00:55:35.320 --> 00:55:41.020
Well, I don\'t know.
That seems more like Disneyland.
00:55:41.130 --> 00:55:46.060
I think that all queer people
have their own problems. Clearly,
00:55:46.170 --> 00:55:47.400
they are human beings.
00:55:47.510 --> 00:55:49.400
But why do we always fight
for ourselves,
00:55:49.510 --> 00:55:54.790
and we don\'t fight with queer people
for these issues?
00:55:54.950 --> 00:55:59.180
I am going to give you
a simple answer.
00:56:01.330 --> 00:56:04.510
If you are on that line, that border,
where you don\'t really know,
00:56:04.620 --> 00:56:08.930
I\'d tell you to you jump from
side to side or to stay in the middle.
00:56:09.040 --> 00:56:11.080
But until you know
00:56:11.400 --> 00:56:12.810
by yourself
00:56:12.920 --> 00:56:17.650
where you\'ll find
this feeling of belonging,
00:56:18.160 --> 00:56:19.490
you\'re denying me...
00:56:20.240 --> 00:56:22.850
- I\'m not denying you anything.
- Not you.
00:56:23.300 --> 00:56:24.920
Sorry, in general.
00:56:25.220 --> 00:56:26.630
The queer world
00:56:26.740 --> 00:56:29.180
is denying
a vital part of ourselves,
00:56:29.290 --> 00:56:32.980
which is to feel fulfilled
because we can have our vagina.
00:56:33.290 --> 00:56:35.910
- No!
- Yes, that\'s how it is!
00:56:36.160 --> 00:56:37.690
- I...
- No, no, no...
00:56:37.820 --> 00:56:38.740
One small thing.
00:56:39.630 --> 00:56:42.840
On both sides,
thing are being said
00:56:43.010 --> 00:56:46.820
that infringe on our personal freedom.
00:56:46.930 --> 00:56:48.790
I-Vaginarium isn\'t about that.
00:56:48.900 --> 00:56:52.820
I-Vaginarium goes beyond being a woman.
00:56:53.110 --> 00:56:58.920
This is about helping each other
00:56:59.230 --> 00:57:01.170
to become a better person
00:57:01.280 --> 00:57:03.640
with the tools we have.
00:57:03.750 --> 00:57:08.270
From there, you have to ask
what kind of woman do you want to be.
00:57:09.420 --> 00:57:12.560
Up, up, down, down!
00:57:12.670 --> 00:57:15.130
With more energy!
00:57:16.570 --> 00:57:18.560
And now we are going to dance
for someone.
00:57:18.660 --> 00:57:20.290
Let\'s go down slowly.
00:57:20.430 --> 00:57:23.340
Wow! No one can see us!
00:57:24.120 --> 00:57:27.480
A little higher.
And now, the challenge.
00:57:27.590 --> 00:57:28.770
I go down and up.
00:57:29.050 --> 00:57:31.210
Now! And up!
00:57:31.640 --> 00:57:33.760
That\'s it! A little faster!
00:57:33.870 --> 00:57:37.140
Down and up. That\'s it!
00:57:37.410 --> 00:57:39.120
Shake your body!
00:57:39.730 --> 00:57:44.390
It\'s four in the morning
and the party is yours!
00:57:45.520 --> 00:57:49.630
I liked that one more.
We\'re going to turn around.
00:57:51.610 --> 00:57:56.140
That\'s it ladies! Like every day
I want us to say goodbye.
00:57:56.250 --> 00:57:58.950
Thank you, my blondies!
See you next time!
00:58:23.880 --> 00:58:26.380
HI HANDSOME
00:58:26.920 --> 00:58:28.080
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
00:59:06.020 --> 00:59:08.440
DO YOU LIKE IT?
00:59:09.020 --> 00:59:10.080
I\'M NEXT TO YOUR HOUSE
00:59:28.900 --> 00:59:30.300
Hi there!
01:00:21.620 --> 01:00:25.020
#LOVEISINTHEAIR
BUT IT\'S POLLUTED
01:00:33.080 --> 01:00:35.510
Throw it to them
to see if the fish come.
01:00:37.040 --> 01:00:38.780
She just took a picture of us.
01:00:39.230 --> 01:00:42.120
- Really?
- Yes. I think she did.
01:00:42.230 --> 01:00:43.430
Let\'s see if something comes out.
01:00:43.540 --> 01:00:45.270
- Why?
- I don\'t know.
01:00:46.090 --> 01:00:47.670
- Of Zaskia?
- Yes.
01:00:47.780 --> 01:00:49.780
- Her?
- That girl, yes. She took a photo.
01:00:49.890 --> 01:00:52.700
- But why?
- I don\'t know, but I noticed.
01:00:52.810 --> 01:00:56.360
- Hi, excuse me. Do you speak Spanish?
- Hi, yes.
01:00:56.470 --> 01:00:59.240
Why were you taking pictures
of my daughter?
01:00:59.420 --> 01:01:00.970
I didn\'t take any pictures.
01:01:01.080 --> 01:01:04.030
Yes, my husband told me.
01:01:04.470 --> 01:01:06.700
Yes, you took a picture
when you were walking.
01:01:06.810 --> 01:01:08.370
Why are you taking pictures of us?
01:01:08.480 --> 01:01:12.730
- Well, it\'s a project that I have...
- A project for what?
01:01:12.840 --> 01:01:16.580
An artistic project
of couples I see in the street.
01:01:16.690 --> 01:01:20.240
- And you\'re an artist? What kind?
- Yes, I\'m an artist.
01:01:20.350 --> 01:01:22.720
- And what are you?
- Why do you care?
01:01:22.830 --> 01:01:23.840
That\'s none of your business.
01:01:23.950 --> 01:01:26.570
We are here as a family,
you took a picture,
01:01:26.680 --> 01:01:28.680
and we\'re asking you to erase it.
01:01:28.790 --> 01:01:30.010
Show it to me please.
01:01:30.120 --> 01:01:31.740
You can\'t see your face, look.
01:01:31.850 --> 01:01:33.780
But it doesn\'t matter.
It\'s my daughter.
01:01:33.880 --> 01:01:36.210
Can you erase the picture please?
01:01:36.320 --> 01:01:38.220
- There are laws!
- I don\'t want to erase it.
01:01:38.330 --> 01:01:42.030
- I think you should erase it.
- It\'s about her. You can\'t do this!
01:01:42.140 --> 01:01:44.070
We came here to kindly ask you
to erase it.
01:01:44.200 --> 01:01:46.320
And I think you should do it.
01:01:46.430 --> 01:01:47.840
Okay, so I\'ll delete it.
01:01:47.950 --> 01:01:50.830
That\'s children\'s rights.
01:01:50.940 --> 01:01:52.830
- It\'s done!
- Thank you.
01:01:52.940 --> 01:01:55.030
- Okay, good evening.
- It\'s done. Bye.
01:01:55.140 --> 01:01:57.330
- It\'s enough!
- Why is she taking pictures?
01:01:57.440 --> 01:01:59.290
She took pictures
without asking for permission.
01:02:01.250 --> 01:02:02.870
You have to ask for permission
to do it.
01:02:02.970 --> 01:02:04.840
Especially a child.
01:02:05.260 --> 01:02:09.100
DON´T MAKE ME WASTE MY TIME, PLEASE
01:02:17.460 --> 01:02:18.820
PHOTOS XXX?
01:02:19.040 --> 01:02:20.340
NO
01:02:20.700 --> 01:02:22.940
I\'LL SEND YOU MINE.
DO YOU GIVE DICK?
01:02:23.200 --> 01:02:24.080
NO
01:02:24.300 --> 01:02:25.560
I\'M BLOCKING YOU
01:02:26.060 --> 01:02:27.780
ARE YOU HORNY?
YOU WANT ME TO RAPE YOU?
01:02:28.000 --> 01:02:28.640
WHAT?
01:02:28.740 --> 01:02:30.280
I\'D EAT YOUR ASS
01:02:30.400 --> 01:02:32.660
I HAVE DIARROHEA
01:02:33.060 --> 01:02:34.140
DO YOU HAVE A PLACE?
01:02:43.890 --> 01:02:46.120
- Hi.
- Hi.
01:02:46.940 --> 01:02:48.920
- How are you?
- Fine
01:02:49.150 --> 01:02:50.170
Yeah?
01:02:52.140 --> 01:02:54.120
- And you?
- I\'m fine.
01:02:54.910 --> 01:02:56.120
What\'s wrong?
01:02:58.380 --> 01:03:00.220
Are you kidding me?
01:03:00.650 --> 01:03:01.920
What\'s wrong?
01:03:03.110 --> 01:03:05.150
I was not supposed to meet a dude.
01:03:06.040 --> 01:03:07.600
Well, I\'m not a dude.
01:03:07.710 --> 01:03:09.910
- You\'re not a dude?
- I\'m not a dude, no.
01:03:10.020 --> 01:03:11.570
I know who I am.
01:03:11.680 --> 01:03:14.460
Yeah? And the girl in the pictures?
01:03:14.810 --> 01:03:17.560
- I am the girl in the pictures.
- Oh, really?
01:03:17.670 --> 01:03:19.550
What\'s your problem?
I don\'t understand.
01:03:19.660 --> 01:03:22.490
My problem is I\'m meant to be meeting up
with a girl to fuck, not with a dude.
01:03:22.600 --> 01:03:24.300
And I\'m not fag,
do you understand?
01:03:24.410 --> 01:03:26.080
I\'m not gay either.
01:03:26.190 --> 01:03:27.840
- Oh, you\'re not fag?
- No.
01:03:28.550 --> 01:03:29.930
- No?
- Well, no.
01:03:30.040 --> 01:03:32.040
- You\'re a chick?
- Of course.
01:03:32.150 --> 01:03:34.910
And your voice, where\'s it from?
01:03:36.870 --> 01:03:42.430
- Well, I think we\'ll leave it here.
- Yeah, we are going to leave it here.
01:03:42.610 --> 01:03:44.310
I want nothing to do with you.
Fuck off.
01:03:44.410 --> 01:03:45.310
Neither do I.
01:03:45.410 --> 01:03:47.150
- Go away.
- The truth is...
01:03:47.330 --> 01:03:48.640
What\'s the truth?
01:03:49.510 --> 01:03:51.570
Don\'t lie, damn it!
Why are you lying to me?
01:03:51.680 --> 01:03:53.830
I didn\'t lie to you.
I don\'t owe you anything.
01:03:53.940 --> 01:03:55.780
I owe you nothing.
I don\'t have to tell you anything.
01:03:55.890 --> 01:03:57.980
Yes, you do,
because we met up to fuck.
01:03:58.090 --> 01:04:00.250
- And I don\'t like dudes.
- But I\'m a chick.
01:04:00.940 --> 01:04:02.620
- What\'s your fucking problem?
- You\'re a chick?
01:04:03.150 --> 01:04:04.910
Do you want me
to fuck you in the ass?
01:04:05.150 --> 01:04:06.330
Do you have a problem?
01:04:06.440 --> 01:04:08.830
Yes, I have a problem,
I\'m not into faggots.
01:04:08.940 --> 01:04:10.450
So, you can fuck off.
01:04:10.560 --> 01:04:11.690
But I\'m not gay though.
01:04:11.800 --> 01:04:12.810
- You aren\'t gay?
- No.
01:04:12.920 --> 01:04:13.650
You\'re a tranny.
01:04:13.750 --> 01:04:16.040
You\'re going to fool
your fucking mother. Come on, fuck off.
01:04:16.350 --> 01:04:18.910
Leave!
Go fool your fucking mother!
01:04:19.020 --> 01:04:19.840
Fuck off!
01:04:19.950 --> 01:04:22.530
- Fuck, that\'s enough!
- Go lie to your fucking mother.
01:04:22.640 --> 01:04:25.410
Creep. Fuck off!
01:04:32.640 --> 01:04:33.730
Hi.
01:04:35.550 --> 01:04:37.890
Where are you going that beautiful?
01:04:39.670 --> 01:04:41.030
Are you OK?
01:04:41.160 --> 01:04:42.420
Yes, all good.
01:04:45.170 --> 01:04:46.750
Is something wrong?
01:04:47.210 --> 01:04:48.310
No.
01:04:52.010 --> 01:04:53.580
- Good morning!
- Hi.
01:04:53.690 --> 01:04:56.360
Raphi! What a change, honey!
01:04:56.470 --> 01:04:57.830
- Hi.
- How are you?
01:04:58.160 --> 01:05:02.580
Babe, you look so pretty with that hair,
it looks great on you.
01:05:03.380 --> 01:05:05.030
But, that face?
01:05:07.100 --> 01:05:08.390
What\'s wrong?
01:05:12.440 --> 01:05:13.710
Hi!
01:05:13.930 --> 01:05:15.220
- Hi.
- Hi.
01:05:15.330 --> 01:05:18.320
Wow! So blonde!
I thought it would be darker.
01:05:18.820 --> 01:05:19.550
Me too.
01:05:19.660 --> 01:05:22.640
Hello, this is Elena,
how can I help you?
01:05:25.960 --> 01:05:29.770
Raphi, honey, what\'s wrong?
01:05:30.740 --> 01:05:34.940
What\'s wrong, my love?
Wait... these are coming...
01:05:35.210 --> 01:05:37.450
Good morning!
How was your weekend?
01:05:37.560 --> 01:05:40.190
- Fine.
- Oh, Raphi, this new look?
01:05:40.730 --> 01:05:44.950
But you\'re piecing it together
without really knowing why he left you.
01:05:45.090 --> 01:05:48.780
- I don\'t know, boys are really strange.
- People in general.
01:05:48.890 --> 01:05:53.680
He\'s probably afraid of society,
01:05:53.790 --> 01:05:57.940
the looks, the prejudice.
I don\'t know, I can\'t explain.
01:05:58.050 --> 01:06:00.560
He didn\'t give you an explanation.
You know what? He doesn\'t deserve you.
01:06:00.670 --> 01:06:03.400
- It\'s not worth it.
- No, but...
01:06:03.510 --> 01:06:07.290
- The problem is the expectations.
- With your self-esteem...
01:06:07.400 --> 01:06:09.050
What do we imagine a relationship is?
01:06:09.250 --> 01:06:11.930
It\'s like fantasy that we make up
01:06:12.040 --> 01:06:13.490
about what the other
has to give us.
01:06:13.800 --> 01:06:18.330
The reality
often doesn\'t fit that pattern.
01:06:18.680 --> 01:06:19.760
No, it doesn\'t.
01:06:19.870 --> 01:06:24.090
Maybe, what we need to try
is to lower those expectations.
01:06:24.200 --> 01:06:28.590
We get too excited
and we have such a romantic idea
01:06:28.700 --> 01:06:31.380
of princesses and prince charming...
01:06:31.490 --> 01:06:34.330
What has been taught to us
as children.
01:06:34.440 --> 01:06:36.410
When that all breaks down
01:06:36.520 --> 01:06:39.620
- it\'s a drama.
- Well, that\'s how it is.
01:06:39.730 --> 01:06:42.790
But, in the end,
we\'re all exposed to this.
01:06:42.920 --> 01:06:46.710
It\'s true that there are people
with more difficulties in life,
01:06:46.820 --> 01:06:50.170
but difficulties are opportunities
to become stronger.
01:06:50.280 --> 01:06:54.300
People that decide
to accept who they are
01:06:54.410 --> 01:06:59.640
are much braver than a person
that is comfortable with everything.
01:06:59.750 --> 01:07:02.490
Yes, but one thing is feeling
comfortable,
01:07:02.600 --> 01:07:04.270
and the other is feeling complete
01:07:04.370 --> 01:07:06.450
and, at the moment,
I don\'t feel complete...
01:07:06.550 --> 01:07:08.770
Give it time!
01:07:08.990 --> 01:07:10.900
It\'s not that you can\'t.
Of course you\'ll be able to!
01:07:11.010 --> 01:07:12.250
You think that having a vagina
01:07:12.360 --> 01:07:14.020
will end all your sexual problems.
01:07:14.130 --> 01:07:16.480
- Of course.
- No, I\'m telling you.
01:07:16.590 --> 01:07:18.810
- Probably not.
- Not necessarily.
01:07:19.110 --> 01:07:20.970
- Not necessarily.
- Why not?
01:07:21.590 --> 01:07:25.640
Let\'s see... first of all, sexuality
isn\'t just genitals.
01:07:25.750 --> 01:07:27.510
Sex goes a little further...
01:07:27.620 --> 01:07:30.460
- Do you enjoy it?
- Enjoying of your skin,
01:07:30.570 --> 01:07:36.280
the eye contact,
different things, okay?
01:07:36.660 --> 01:07:38.550
I had relationships
01:07:38.660 --> 01:07:41.420
where I was really happy
with the orgasms of my partners,
01:07:41.530 --> 01:07:44.040
- but I felt a little...
- Of your partners!
01:07:44.150 --> 01:07:47.090
And you faked it, classic!
01:07:47.310 --> 01:07:50.140
I didn\'t fake it!
But if I didn\'t come, I didn\'t come.
01:07:50.250 --> 01:07:52.900
In that moment, I thought:
\"I don\'t mind,\"
01:07:53.010 --> 01:07:58.320
because we have...
the fantasy of a relationship.
01:07:58.430 --> 01:08:00.860
The fantasy of it being
the be-all and end-all...
01:08:00.970 --> 01:08:03.340
and that you\'re incomplete
if you don\'t have someone.
01:08:03.450 --> 01:08:04.530
But it\'s a lie!
01:08:04.850 --> 01:08:10.480
And the more expectations you have
for things to be a certain way,
01:08:10.590 --> 01:08:12.710
- the more frustrated you\'ll feel.
- Of course.
01:08:13.200 --> 01:08:15.100
But ladies,
Raphi hasn\'t told you something.
01:08:15.210 --> 01:08:19.230
- Go on, tell us.
- Because, it\'s not all sadness, honey.
01:08:19.550 --> 01:08:21.770
- Tell them.
- There are definitely good things.
01:08:21.880 --> 01:08:24.730
Tell them about the theatre director.
01:08:24.930 --> 01:08:28.410
Well, a theatre director
has approached me to do a play.
01:08:28.790 --> 01:08:29.820
Wow!
01:08:29.920 --> 01:08:31.720
They were looking
for a trans-girl
01:08:31.820 --> 01:08:34.840
to tell her... her story.
01:08:34.950 --> 01:08:39.050
And don\'t you think that could
be an opportunity to heal?
01:08:39.160 --> 01:08:42.570
I think they chose a trans-girl,
because she\'s trans.
01:08:43.020 --> 01:08:46.450
In the same way, when
there\'s a play about a black person,
01:08:46.550 --> 01:08:47.470
they choose a black person.
01:08:47.570 --> 01:08:49.980
It\'s like what they used to do here
with the Three Kings,
01:08:50.090 --> 01:08:52.420
when they painted Balthazar black.
01:08:52.530 --> 01:08:56.420
There are black people,
so they choose a black person.
01:08:56.600 --> 01:08:59.520
They\'re not going
to choose a girl that\'s not trans.
01:08:59.630 --> 01:09:02.050
But I\'m tired of being chosen
because I\'m trans,
01:09:02.160 --> 01:09:03.630
that they see me as trans,
01:09:03.740 --> 01:09:07.250
that they limit me to being trans.
01:09:07.690 --> 01:09:10.700
I\'m going to do a very basic exam
01:09:10.810 --> 01:09:14.100
just to see the tissue, okay?
01:09:14.210 --> 01:09:16.530
- Okay.
- Okay, pull it up.
01:09:20.410 --> 01:09:21.620
Okay.
01:09:22.590 --> 01:09:23.740
Very good.
01:09:26.820 --> 01:09:29.970
Well, Raphi like I was saying,
the surgery can be done.
01:09:30.620 --> 01:09:32.890
Now it\'s about you telling me
01:09:32.990 --> 01:09:34.890
what you want to know,
if you have any doubts...
01:09:34.990 --> 01:09:37.580
I have several doubts, like knowing
01:09:37.680 --> 01:09:40.420
if it\'s functional,
if there\'s sensitivity
01:09:40.560 --> 01:09:43.480
once the surgery is done.
01:09:43.590 --> 01:09:45.160
Alright, about sensitivity...
01:09:45.270 --> 01:09:48.380
That\'s one of the main goals
of the surgery.
01:09:48.490 --> 01:09:52.190
It will never be like the sensitivity
that you have in your penis now.
01:09:52.300 --> 01:09:54.710
But yes, you will have sensitivity.
01:09:55.140 --> 01:09:56.160
Okay.
01:09:56.270 --> 01:09:59.420
So, there\'s no risk of the body
01:09:59.530 --> 01:10:01.690
rejecting the future vagina?
01:10:01.800 --> 01:10:02.680
Good question.
01:10:02.790 --> 01:10:06.690
But don\'t worry, because
we\'re going to use your own tissue.
01:10:06.800 --> 01:10:10.310
Your body won\'t reject it.
01:10:11.050 --> 01:10:15.890
I also wanted to know,
if there is a timeframe...
01:10:16.000 --> 01:10:17.970
If I could know
when the surgery would be.
01:10:19.410 --> 01:10:22.890
Raphi, you\'re on the waiting list.
01:10:23.510 --> 01:10:25.270
You are number 73,
01:10:25.380 --> 01:10:28.520
so it will be at least three years.
01:10:28.800 --> 01:10:31.150
- A three-year wait?
- Yes.
01:10:33.010 --> 01:10:33.980
Okay.
01:10:34.090 --> 01:10:38.230
Listen, Raphi. These are the spots
that are managed by the government.
01:10:39.350 --> 01:10:42.320
This is also important because
01:10:42.430 --> 01:10:45.430
you\'ll start
preparing for this situation.
01:10:45.590 --> 01:10:47.110
I know if you\'ve made it this far,
01:10:47.220 --> 01:10:49.960
it\'s because you\'re convinced of
what you want to do,
01:10:50.070 --> 01:10:55.220
but this is a major surgery
that can\'t be reversed.
01:10:56.940 --> 01:10:58.030
Okay.
01:10:59.790 --> 01:11:00.800
Okay.
01:11:01.430 --> 01:11:05.730
Oh, what a surprise!
You have a new look!
01:11:05.880 --> 01:11:07.620
No, it\'s not great.
01:11:08.650 --> 01:11:10.940
No! I think it\'s...
01:11:11.110 --> 01:11:15.760
...pretty. It\'s like
a bluish-grey, silver, isn\'t it?
01:11:15.870 --> 01:11:18.550
Yes, but I wanted blond, not blue.
01:11:20.550 --> 01:11:24.820
- It\'s not my style.
- But it looks good!
01:11:24.930 --> 01:11:25.940
I don\'t know.
01:11:26.050 --> 01:11:29.630
- It\'s rock & roll!
- Yeah, but I\'m not rock.
01:11:30.290 --> 01:11:31.610
I\'m glam.
01:11:32.330 --> 01:11:33.340
Well yeah.
01:11:34.700 --> 01:11:39.370
Yes, but it\'s pretty
and the hair will come back...
01:11:39.480 --> 01:11:42.380
But I can see in your face
that something\'s wrong.
01:11:42.490 --> 01:11:45.850
- There\'s something that...
- You seem sad.
01:11:45.960 --> 01:11:49.080
Well, I just got back from the surgeon.
01:11:51.910 --> 01:11:52.670
And so?
01:11:52.780 --> 01:11:55.950
So, it\'s a three-year wait.
01:11:59.790 --> 01:12:02.910
Yeah, I understand three years is a lot.
01:12:03.020 --> 01:12:05.440
Does it seem long to you?
01:12:05.550 --> 01:12:09.510
Yes dad, there are seventy girls
before me.
01:12:10.290 --> 01:12:13.180
What am I going to do?
My plan was to do it now.
01:12:13.290 --> 01:12:14.860
Watch the news.
01:12:16.430 --> 01:12:20.650
Waiting lists tend to be longer.
01:12:20.760 --> 01:12:23.580
I don\'t think three years is that long.
01:12:23.690 --> 01:12:26.900
Also, those three years are to
01:12:27.010 --> 01:12:30.700
fully process the idea and...
01:12:30.930 --> 01:12:35.530
...so that the girls
that take this route, are sure.
01:12:36.210 --> 01:12:41.020
And don\'t worry,
we\'re with you, your sisters too.
01:12:42.490 --> 01:12:47.940
The whole family is with you.
Everyone supports you, and like I said,
01:12:48.230 --> 01:12:53.640
if you really need to, just come home.
01:12:54.990 --> 01:12:59.900
Barcelona isn\'t going anywhere.
Come back whenever you want to.
01:13:00.010 --> 01:13:04.330
There are many possibilities.
You don\'t have to be stuck
01:13:04.590 --> 01:13:06.830
...in something that doesn\'t suit you.
01:13:07.560 --> 01:13:10.430
Yes, yes, I get the issue.
01:13:11.560 --> 01:13:12.620
No.
01:13:16.950 --> 01:13:19.020
I can give you the information...
01:13:24.550 --> 01:13:27.670
Yes, but you have to understand
it\'s not my fault they charged you.
01:13:27.780 --> 01:13:29.960
There is someone pretending to be you
01:13:30.070 --> 01:13:31.900
requesting cell phones.
01:13:32.010 --> 01:13:35.050
So, I\'m telling you the process
we have to follow.
01:13:35.160 --> 01:13:38.030
I need you to send an email
01:13:38.970 --> 01:13:42.260
I\'m Carmen, I told you at the beginning.
01:13:43.670 --> 01:13:45.930
I need you to write the email
01:13:46.040 --> 01:13:48.280
so I can send it to my colleagues.
01:13:49.100 --> 01:13:50.680
HI CARLES. HOW ARE YOU?
01:13:51.060 --> 01:13:52.820
I\'VE BEEN THINKING ABOUT YOUR OFFER.
01:13:53.020 --> 01:13:55.820
CAN WE MEET?
01:13:56.200 --> 01:13:58.460
All I can say is, I\'ll take note of it
and I\'ll look into it...
01:13:58.920 --> 01:14:02.650
I can\'t solve it.
01:14:06.300 --> 01:14:07.560
Right now,
01:14:08.390 --> 01:14:10.300
how would you define yourself?
01:14:10.940 --> 01:14:13.020
- How do I define myself?
- Yes.
01:14:14.340 --> 01:14:15.440
First of all, I\'m a woman.
01:14:15.550 --> 01:14:20.310
I think that it\'s something
I have to reclaim nowadays.
01:14:23.910 --> 01:14:27.720
When sometimes, my identity
is still in question.
01:14:28.680 --> 01:14:32.360
When people that I meet
question me
01:14:32.470 --> 01:14:38.410
or talk to me in masculine form,
or hurt me during my transition.
01:14:38.520 --> 01:14:41.570
I feel the need to claim
that I\'m a woman,
01:14:41.680 --> 01:14:43.450
and also...
01:14:46.870 --> 01:14:50.670
because of what happened to me recently,
01:14:50.780 --> 01:14:54.200
sometimes I have the feeling
01:14:55.150 --> 01:14:59.730
that I\'m still very much a child.
I\'m a total dreamer.
01:14:59.840 --> 01:15:03.330
Maybe a little naïve, ingenuous.
01:15:06.780 --> 01:15:11.590
It\'s something that I\'d like to change.
01:15:12.010 --> 01:15:15.970
To become someone with a stronger
personality, more empowered...
01:15:16.080 --> 01:15:21.080
I don\'t know if this might be useful,
I haven\'t known you very long,
01:15:21.500 --> 01:15:24.530
but I think you have a lot of character.
01:15:25.900 --> 01:15:28.320
A lot of character!
01:15:28.640 --> 01:15:31.850
You have plenty of conditions,
and qualities to spare
01:15:31.960 --> 01:15:34.620
to do this project.
01:15:34.730 --> 01:15:35.750
Okay.
01:15:36.140 --> 01:15:41.050
On one hand you said:
\"I don\'t want to be different.\"
01:15:41.160 --> 01:15:45.800
But on the other hand,
I know you have a strong,
01:15:45.910 --> 01:15:48.140
artistic personality,
01:15:48.250 --> 01:15:51.070
that you\'ve been looking
a lot for this identity of your own.
01:15:51.180 --> 01:15:53.370
This difference, even with your look...
01:15:54.590 --> 01:15:57.920
So, I\'d like you to talk to me
a little about...
01:15:59.070 --> 01:16:01.220
Is this a contradiction for you?
01:16:02.390 --> 01:16:04.280
At this point in my life
01:16:04.390 --> 01:16:08.600
I see that it\'s something negative
for me to be different.
01:16:08.740 --> 01:16:13.560
I\'d like to fit in the world,
with people.
01:16:13.670 --> 01:16:16.540
But I see that\'s not the case.
01:16:16.790 --> 01:16:18.110
It\'s true that there\'s a part of me
01:16:18.220 --> 01:16:20.250
that likes to transgress with fashion...
01:16:20.640 --> 01:16:23.230
I like to use this means of expression
01:16:23.340 --> 01:16:27.230
but I have to be very feminine too.
01:16:27.450 --> 01:16:29.970
Often others remind me of my condition,
01:16:30.080 --> 01:16:33.710
and I feel more masculine than ever.
That\'s the hardest thing to deal with.
01:16:33.820 --> 01:16:36.140
Because that\'s what
everyone else sees in me.
01:16:36.730 --> 01:16:38.880
But, after all, I don\'t see it.
01:16:38.990 --> 01:16:42.620
A very easy example,
with boys...
01:16:42.930 --> 01:16:45.420
I feel like...
01:16:48.540 --> 01:16:49.930
I\'ll end up alone.
01:16:52.280 --> 01:16:53.930
- But...
- Because no one loves me.
01:16:54.950 --> 01:16:56.130
I mean...
01:16:58.260 --> 01:17:01.350
It\'s great to have me as a friend,
as...
01:17:05.170 --> 01:17:08.090
But I\'ll never be someone\'s woman,
01:17:08.200 --> 01:17:12.110
or someone\'s wife
or just someone\'s girlfriend.
01:17:16.340 --> 01:17:17.350
I don\'t know.
01:17:18.010 --> 01:17:20.630
Boys don\'t want to be
with me because...
01:17:22.290 --> 01:17:23.500
I\'m not...
01:17:25.450 --> 01:17:29.420
I\'m not perfect enough for them.
01:17:33.720 --> 01:17:35.530
I don\'t know how to say this.
01:17:36.410 --> 01:17:38.530
Raphi, do you realise that...?
01:17:38.640 --> 01:17:40.640
I think you\'re very capable of doing it.
01:17:40.750 --> 01:17:44.100
But do you realise that there will
be a lot of people watching you.
01:17:44.210 --> 01:17:45.450
That we are working
01:17:45.800 --> 01:17:47.970
about the people
that are watching you.
01:17:48.490 --> 01:17:50.140
And you are letting them watch you.
01:17:50.450 --> 01:17:51.430
Okay?
01:17:52.300 --> 01:17:53.340
Okay.
01:18:04.480 --> 01:18:05.740
Come in.
01:18:10.730 --> 01:18:12.720
I can\'t believe it!
01:18:14.670 --> 01:18:16.690
Wow!
01:18:18.610 --> 01:18:21.370
- Wow!
- Does it look big?
01:18:24.090 --> 01:18:26.940
Okay, now
we have to make sure
01:18:27.050 --> 01:18:28.530
you are in the light.
01:18:28.830 --> 01:18:30.340
- Okay.
- Okay?
01:18:30.940 --> 01:18:32.430
Whenever you\'re ready, Raphi.
01:18:33.530 --> 01:18:36.380
I feel excluded
from the representation of the sexes.
01:18:36.490 --> 01:18:40.700
Why aren\'t there trans mannequins?
Man, woman. What does it mean?
01:18:40.840 --> 01:18:42.960
Who is to say how a man should be?
01:18:43.070 --> 01:18:44.950
Or how a woman should be?
01:18:45.060 --> 01:18:47.710
To fit in, or not to fit in?
01:18:47.870 --> 01:18:50.850
Be who they expect you to be
or be yourself?
01:18:50.960 --> 01:18:52.570
For me, that\'s the question.
01:18:52.680 --> 01:18:57.240
Sorry,
just one step back, and stand here.
01:18:57.350 --> 01:18:59.330
Do you feel the heat here?
01:18:59.440 --> 01:19:00.940
- Okay.
- That\'s it.
01:19:01.050 --> 01:19:02.710
- Much better!
- Thank you, Llorenç.
01:19:02.820 --> 01:19:04.640
- Thanks a lot.
- You\'re welcome.
01:19:04.760 --> 01:19:08.350
Okay, so let\'s do it again.
This is the position, OK?
01:19:08.460 --> 01:19:09.760
- Perfect. Great.
- Okay?
01:19:09.870 --> 01:19:12.030
Eugenio, can we repeat the scene?
01:19:13.930 --> 01:19:16.930
I don\'t know if it\'s a typical comment,
but why do you torture yourself so much?
01:19:17.040 --> 01:19:19.430
I see you as a very attractive girl.
01:19:21.080 --> 01:19:24.680
Well, I don\'t torture myself,
but I see the truth. I mean...
01:19:25.790 --> 01:19:30.010
After all, when...
01:19:31.190 --> 01:19:33.940
when I start a relationship
with someone or whatever
01:19:34.050 --> 01:19:36.300
the boys always run away.
01:19:36.410 --> 01:19:38.210
Perhaps I\'m attractive,
but then what?
01:19:39.120 --> 01:19:42.460
Sometimes I feel like
I\'m a fucking image, and nothing else?
01:19:42.570 --> 01:19:45.510
- A lot of disappointments?
- Disappointments?
01:19:45.710 --> 01:19:48.190
Well, yeah, a lot...
01:19:48.300 --> 01:19:50.190
You haven\'t met your prince charming?
01:19:52.820 --> 01:19:55.200
I\'m not even looking
for a prince charming.
01:19:55.300 --> 01:19:57.720
I don\'t know
why are you say that, but...
01:19:59.670 --> 01:20:02.270
I\'m looking for company at least.
01:20:02.380 --> 01:20:04.360
You aren\'t looking for
a prince charming,
01:20:04.460 --> 01:20:05.520
but someone...
01:20:05.660 --> 01:20:06.780
to share with...
01:20:06.890 --> 01:20:09.050
- Yes, totally.
- Someone to trust in...
01:20:09.160 --> 01:20:10.730
Yes exactly.
01:20:11.870 --> 01:20:15.380
Someone to merge with,
to be one with, to become...
01:20:15.490 --> 01:20:16.700
- Of course.
- So nice.
01:20:16.810 --> 01:20:18.870
- You don\'t?
- That\'s bullshit.
01:20:18.980 --> 01:20:22.440
- What do you mean that\'s bullshit?
- I don\'t want it. I pass.
01:20:23.180 --> 01:20:25.580
I think
that people are born alone,
01:20:25.690 --> 01:20:29.920
we die alone, and on that path
which can be short or long,
01:20:30.030 --> 01:20:33.530
we will meet different partners
who can even be simultaneous.
01:20:33.890 --> 01:20:35.830
For me this Disney fairy tale
01:20:35.980 --> 01:20:39.230
about the love of my life,
my other half...
01:20:39.760 --> 01:20:41.300
I am already whole.
01:20:41.410 --> 01:20:43.500
I don\'t want to be with a half.
01:20:43.610 --> 01:20:46.110
I\'m whole on my own.
01:20:46.960 --> 01:20:48.330
And do you live well with that?
01:20:48.440 --> 01:20:50.600
I live however I can.
01:20:51.070 --> 01:20:53.790
What you\'re telling me
is very beautiful, but...
01:20:53.900 --> 01:20:57.440
unfortunately, I don\'t seem to find...
01:20:57.550 --> 01:20:59.950
those partners that easy.
01:21:00.060 --> 01:21:02.530
The few boys
that are interested in me...
01:21:05.610 --> 01:21:07.260
- Hi!
- What do you mean hi?
01:21:07.370 --> 01:21:08.760
I\'m interested.
01:21:08.870 --> 01:21:11.260
You\'re interested.
And what\'s gonna happen then?
01:21:11.370 --> 01:21:13.630
- What\'s gonna happen?
- Nothing.
01:21:13.950 --> 01:21:16.540
Well, if you´re going to be like that,
nothing will happen.
01:21:16.870 --> 01:21:20.110
And if it doesn\'t,
but something just as beautiful happens?
01:21:21.160 --> 01:21:22.940
- How...?
- Let\'s go with the flow
01:21:23.050 --> 01:21:25.660
Yes, sure, we go with the flow,
and tomorrow?
01:21:25.770 --> 01:21:27.750
Tomorrow is tomorrow!
01:23:03.690 --> 01:23:07.390
We could talk for hours
about what \"normal\" means, but...
01:23:07.560 --> 01:23:09.630
the separation that you see,
01:23:10.060 --> 01:23:12.830
and the violence that you feel
sometimes,
01:23:12.940 --> 01:23:14.480
we don\'t have it.
01:23:14.590 --> 01:23:19.170
- In the play, right.
- I think we need to take that route.
01:23:20.660 --> 01:23:22.330
I want to be strong.
01:23:22.920 --> 01:23:25.130
I want to be able to face any look.
01:23:25.970 --> 01:23:28.630
And then I think
and feel with my entire being
01:23:30.070 --> 01:23:31.620
that I cannot go back
01:23:32.410 --> 01:23:36.040
because I can\'t let
those looks break me.
01:23:36.760 --> 01:23:38.730
I can\'t take a step back.
01:23:38.950 --> 01:23:41.430
If I do, nothing would have made sense.
01:23:41.980 --> 01:23:43.820
If I do it, I give in to fear,
01:23:44.180 --> 01:23:45.990
to their desires.
01:23:46.860 --> 01:23:48.620
I give in to them,
01:23:49.330 --> 01:23:51.530
to those that look violently,
01:23:52.010 --> 01:23:54.530
to those that treat you like an object.
01:23:55.340 --> 01:23:57.870
None of us can give a step back.
01:23:58.170 --> 01:24:00.210
No trans or cis woman,
01:24:00.320 --> 01:24:01.610
or whatever.
01:24:02.240 --> 01:24:04.720
How long will we
have to deal with this superiority?
01:24:04.970 --> 01:24:07.430
This arrogance that\'s everywhere.
01:24:07.680 --> 01:24:09.650
Sometimes in a very obvious way,
01:24:10.460 --> 01:24:12.910
other times very subtle.
01:24:13.620 --> 01:24:16.500
How dare you?
Why do you dress so strange?
01:24:16.610 --> 01:24:20.520
What are you?
Why are you so different?
01:24:21.610 --> 01:24:23.430
I don\'t want them to devour me.
01:24:23.670 --> 01:24:25.430
I want to be who I am.
01:24:26.370 --> 01:24:28.000
To the boy that I was.
01:24:28.520 --> 01:24:30.600
To the girl I was without knowing it.
01:24:31.430 --> 01:24:33.430
To you, who I don\'t even know.
01:24:33.850 --> 01:24:36.390
To you, who I love
without even knowing you.
01:24:36.940 --> 01:24:39.310
To you, an image in my mind.
01:24:39.930 --> 01:24:41.340
I am Raphaëlle.
01:24:43.550 --> 01:24:45.910
Damn, this text is intense.
01:24:48.830 --> 01:24:49.840
Yes.
01:24:52.820 --> 01:24:53.450
So...
01:24:54.920 --> 01:24:57.230
Is it OK?
Can we work with this?
01:25:00.530 --> 01:25:02.680
It comes from the things you told me.
01:25:02.790 --> 01:25:06.040
They\'re your words, your experience...
01:25:08.370 --> 01:25:13.320
If you identify yourself in the text,
we\'ll try it in a scene.
01:25:13.430 --> 01:25:15.340
Yes, I see myself, but...
01:25:15.950 --> 01:25:18.030
I think it will be very hard.
01:25:20.720 --> 01:25:23.640
I don\'t know, I don\'t think I\'m capable.
01:25:25.580 --> 01:25:27.950
What are you? How dare you?
01:25:28.060 --> 01:25:29.720
You dress so weird.
01:25:30.510 --> 01:25:32.110
Who do you think you are?
01:25:32.220 --> 01:25:35.420
Why are you so different?
01:25:35.960 --> 01:25:37.560
I start counting the stops.
01:25:37.670 --> 01:25:39.970
They are like pieces
of Paris history.
01:25:40.080 --> 01:25:41.340
The voice that announces
01:25:41.440 --> 01:25:43.360
and pronounces
with different inflections.
01:25:43.460 --> 01:25:45.630
I always liked this detail.
01:25:59.550 --> 01:26:02.000
From this moment on...
01:26:02.220 --> 01:26:06.650
I leave behind the sparkling
and elegant Paris, the Paris of dreams.
01:26:06.760 --> 01:26:09.530
This is the real world, dark,
01:26:09.750 --> 01:26:12.410
dangerous, violent.
01:26:12.890 --> 01:26:14.620
This is the real world,
01:26:14.730 --> 01:26:17.470
dark, dangerous,
01:26:17.750 --> 01:26:18.940
violent.
01:26:19.050 --> 01:26:21.910
Two men are looking at me.
At me? Impossible.
01:26:23.650 --> 01:26:26.030
Yes,
they look at me, up and down, staring.
01:26:26.140 --> 01:26:29.500
It\'s more than curiosity,
it\'s perverse, disgusting.
01:26:29.610 --> 01:26:31.240
They come near me,
01:26:31.400 --> 01:26:34.640
I get up, I go to the door
to be closer to the exit.
01:26:34.750 --> 01:26:36.630
They must be coming for me.
01:26:36.970 --> 01:26:38.780
I arrive at the third...
01:26:39.230 --> 01:26:41.000
- I run up the stairs.
- Okay, let\'s start again.
01:26:41.110 --> 01:26:42.730
- From here!
- From here?
01:26:42.840 --> 01:26:44.970
Yes. Calm down! Don\'t speed up!
01:26:45.560 --> 01:26:48.230
Hey! What are you doing?
01:26:48.370 --> 01:26:50.630
- I\'m putting this on.
- Let me see.
01:26:50.920 --> 01:26:52.290
- Are you nervous?
- Yes.
01:26:52.400 --> 01:26:53.610
- Me too.
- You too?
01:26:53.720 --> 01:26:55.530
A lot. Look.
01:26:56.660 --> 01:26:58.330
- Am I nervous or what?
- Yes.
01:26:58.440 --> 01:26:59.730
Yes, right?
01:27:15.440 --> 01:27:16.910
Fuck!
01:27:23.600 --> 01:27:26.570
- No.
- No? Okay, that\'s it.
01:27:30.650 --> 01:27:32.230
Stop, stop!
01:27:32.980 --> 01:27:35.320
- Why?
- Because I don\'t want to come yet.
01:27:35.430 --> 01:27:36.780
- Don\'t you?
- Wait.
01:27:36.890 --> 01:27:38.410
- Why?
- You first.
01:27:38.520 --> 01:27:40.110
- Why?
- You first.
01:27:59.310 --> 01:28:02.230
- She leaves her hideout.
- Okay.
01:28:02.520 --> 01:28:04.490
Does the whole monologue...
01:28:04.650 --> 01:28:06.370
My cue is
\"what does it mean to be a woman.\"
01:28:06.580 --> 01:28:08.260
I TOTALLY UNDERSTAND
01:28:08.580 --> 01:28:09.660
I DON\'T KNOW
01:28:14.460 --> 01:28:16.600
IF YOU\'RE FREE, I\'D LIKE TO SEE YOU
01:28:30.720 --> 01:28:32.010
- How are you?
- Hi.
01:28:32.120 --> 01:28:34.610
- How are you?
- Fine, you?
01:28:34.720 --> 01:28:35.730
- Fine.
- Yes?
01:28:35.840 --> 01:28:39.810
Well, I don\'t know, everything ended...
well \"ended\"... I mean...
01:28:40.440 --> 01:28:42.730
Yes, it ended.
Because you disappeared!
01:28:42.830 --> 01:28:44.100
I didn\'t disappear!
01:28:44.200 --> 01:28:45.340
I mean...
01:28:45.590 --> 01:28:48.730
- You avoided me.
- You\'re a bit extreme, aren\'t you?
01:28:48.970 --> 01:28:52.110
Maybe,
but, what do you want me to say?
01:28:52.220 --> 01:28:54.710
- I don\'t know.
- You\'re always over the top.
01:28:55.250 --> 01:28:56.030
Yeah.
01:28:56.290 --> 01:28:58.190
But I\'d like to know why.
01:28:58.300 --> 01:29:02.430
It was really intense for me.
I wasn\'t...
01:29:03.490 --> 01:29:05.980
looking for a relationship
or something stable.
01:29:06.090 --> 01:29:08.200
- I noticed that you were...
- But we didn\'t say that.
01:29:08.310 --> 01:29:11.470
- We didn\'t even talk about that.
- I know...
01:29:11.580 --> 01:29:13.200
But I noticed you were pulling
01:29:13.310 --> 01:29:16.380
harder than I was ready for.
01:29:17.230 --> 01:29:18.250
I also noticed things.
01:29:19.530 --> 01:29:24.550
I\'m in a place where
I\'m getting my shit together again...
01:29:25.500 --> 01:29:27.880
I don\'t know, maybe I need more time...
01:29:27.990 --> 01:29:29.240
I don\'t know
if I explained myself.
01:29:29.350 --> 01:29:31.880
And it also scared you
to be with me.
01:29:33.000 --> 01:29:34.870
A little, yeah.
01:29:35.590 --> 01:29:38.140
- Out of ignorance...
- Ignorance?
01:29:38.250 --> 01:29:40.110
I also have my doubts.
01:29:40.740 --> 01:29:42.770
This is completely new to me.
01:29:42.880 --> 01:29:46.300
I mean, I understand that for you
01:29:46.410 --> 01:29:50.280
it has not been easy to accept
a relationship with a trans girl
01:29:50.390 --> 01:29:52.220
for all that it involves...
01:29:54.280 --> 01:29:56.430
To your...
01:29:57.670 --> 01:30:01.710
friends, the approval...
01:30:01.820 --> 01:30:03.660
But I\'m not talking
about going that far...
01:30:03.770 --> 01:30:07.670
I addressed the topic
as best I could...
01:30:07.780 --> 01:30:09.850
But I didn\'t know
01:30:11.050 --> 01:30:14.540
how to touch you,
what you were comfortable with or not.
01:30:15.070 --> 01:30:16.950
It was there, it was like a taboo.
01:30:18.070 --> 01:30:21.320
Maybe you didn\'t know
how to do it and I...
01:30:22.500 --> 01:30:23.990
didn\'t know how to address the issue,
01:30:24.820 --> 01:30:27.210
or how to talk about it
in a mature way.
01:30:28.530 --> 01:30:30.710
But if you don\'t guide me a little,
01:30:31.850 --> 01:30:33.640
it\'s difficult for me.
01:30:33.980 --> 01:30:39.080
Yeah, I understand perfectly.
It wasn\'t easy for anyone.
01:30:40.590 --> 01:30:45.660
It\'s a shame that we couldn\'t
verbalise it at the time.
01:30:45.770 --> 01:30:48.170
Now, it\'s three months later.
01:30:49.120 --> 01:30:52.300
- But it\'s not a lost cause, isn\'t it?
- No, I know.
01:30:53.160 --> 01:30:57.610
I don\'t even know if you want
01:30:58.060 --> 01:30:59.860
us to continue seeing each other...
01:31:00.260 --> 01:31:02.230
I don\'t know
if you are dating someone...
01:31:03.180 --> 01:31:05.310
If I\'m dating someone? No.
01:31:07.990 --> 01:31:10.630
- No? Are you sure?
- Yes, why?
01:31:10.740 --> 01:31:12.520
Because you\'re smiling.
01:31:16.340 --> 01:31:19.090
- It\'s like you\'re in a divan...
- Divan?
01:31:19.200 --> 01:31:22.480
I feel like a psychoanalyst
and you\'re my patient.
01:31:22.590 --> 01:31:25.000
- I love it!
- Yeah? Can I ask you questions?
01:31:25.110 --> 01:31:27.550
- Of course.
- I turn away a bit,
01:31:27.660 --> 01:31:30.530
like they do
to avoid eye contact...
01:31:31.960 --> 01:31:33.130
It\'s true, they do that!
01:31:33.240 --> 01:31:34.460
- Oh, really?
- Of course.
01:31:34.570 --> 01:31:37.720
You\'re French, I\'d create
a big psychoanalysis school there...
01:31:38.230 --> 01:31:40.460
So I can ask you...
01:31:42.700 --> 01:31:44.730
What do you like the most about sex?
01:31:45.540 --> 01:31:47.930
- What do I like the most?
- Yes.
01:31:54.100 --> 01:31:57.660
Maybe it sounds stupid,
but the presence of the other person.
01:31:58.070 --> 01:31:59.290
It doesn\'t sound stupid.
01:32:01.860 --> 01:32:04.220
I thought that with a vagina,
01:32:04.320 --> 01:32:06.700
I would be accepted
and desired by a boy.
01:32:07.590 --> 01:32:08.620
Yeah.
01:32:12.220 --> 01:32:15.530
- But that doesn\'t guarantee anything.
- No, I mean...
01:32:16.070 --> 01:32:18.520
I can\'t do anything.
I can\'t even go to a private clinic,
01:32:18.630 --> 01:32:20.560
because I don\'t have the money, so...
01:32:20.670 --> 01:32:22.490
So I have to wait and...
01:32:25.400 --> 01:32:28.830
I think that now it\'s time
for me to accept myself.
01:32:28.940 --> 01:32:31.620
And that\'s it.
I take these three years to...
01:32:33.020 --> 01:32:35.310
see where they take me...
01:32:37.550 --> 01:32:39.170
And that\'s it, I come first.
01:32:39.280 --> 01:32:40.420
You come first.
01:32:44.780 --> 01:32:47.430
This is me at 4 years old.
01:32:50.190 --> 01:32:54.140
And this is me
a little younger, at 2 years old.
01:32:57.170 --> 01:33:01.320
And this is Raphi,
about 24 years ago.
01:33:07.260 --> 01:33:10.610
I\'m hiding
like I did for many years.
01:33:11.430 --> 01:33:13.320
I\'m not an actress.
01:33:13.510 --> 01:33:16.220
But I can lie, pretend,
01:33:16.940 --> 01:33:18.310
I\'m good at that.
01:33:18.910 --> 01:33:21.180
I played a role for 20 years,
01:33:21.480 --> 01:33:24.230
but the day arrived
when I decided to cross the line,
01:33:24.730 --> 01:33:27.320
the border, the limit.
01:33:32.860 --> 01:33:34.220
What are you?
01:33:35.000 --> 01:33:36.710
How dare you?
01:33:37.810 --> 01:33:39.550
You dress so weird!
01:33:40.410 --> 01:33:42.220
Who do you think you are?
01:33:42.730 --> 01:33:44.120
Why are you so,
01:33:45.080 --> 01:33:46.520
so different?
01:33:46.870 --> 01:33:51.080
I leave behind the sparkling
and elegant Paris, the Paris of dreams.
01:33:51.370 --> 01:33:53.210
This is the real world.
01:33:54.710 --> 01:33:56.910
You have gender dysphoria.
01:33:57.200 --> 01:33:58.560
No one will love you
in this body.
01:33:58.670 --> 01:33:59.970
Don\'t look for me.
01:34:00.430 --> 01:34:03.100
Don\'t look, don\'t answer,
don\'t listen.
01:34:03.980 --> 01:34:06.690
I\'m sorry, it feels really weird
to refer to you in the feminine form.
01:34:07.170 --> 01:34:08.680
Do your parents support you?
01:34:08.790 --> 01:34:11.170
You\' should speak with a professional.
01:34:11.820 --> 01:34:13.410
I love you.
01:34:13.970 --> 01:34:16.910
Are you sure?
You won\'t be able to turn back.
01:34:18.590 --> 01:34:19.660
Do you masturbate?
01:34:19.770 --> 01:34:21.770
I want you to fuck me from behind.
01:34:25.900 --> 01:34:27.730
You can\'t leave me like this.
01:34:31.190 --> 01:34:34.780
Good morning.
How can I help you?
01:35:08.130 --> 01:35:09.150
Raphi!
01:35:10.330 --> 01:35:12.000
Come and toast with me!
01:35:12.930 --> 01:35:14.420
Oops, the glass!
01:35:29.020 --> 01:35:31.230
Put as much as you want.
01:35:33.750 --> 01:35:35.890
- I\'m your masterpiece.
- A little more?
01:36:00.980 --> 01:36:02.860
