Petite fille

Sébastien Lifshitz

Sébastien Lifshitz follows Sasha, a trans child, and her family in everyday life. The documentary shows their conversations, doubts and efforts to have Sasha recognised as a girl.

Why it belongs here

The subject is approached through a family’s life and the obstacles it encounters. The film discusses rejection and the suffering it causes.

Before choosing

Compare it with Disclosure for a change of perspective: one examines representations on screen, while the other follows an individual family’s daily experience. This is a documentary about identity and family life.
