Transamerica – Special Edition

Life is a journey… Bring an open mind

Bree (Felicity Huffman, Desperate Housewives) is a highly educated transsexual woman, living in a poor section of Los Angeles and working two jobs to save money for her final sexual reassignment surgery. When she receives a phone call from Toby (Kevin Zegers, Smallville), a jailed teenage runaway looking for his father, she's shocked to discover that a fumbling heterosexual encounter during her life as a man resulted in a son. Bree's instinct is to turn her back on the past but her therapist insists she must confront it, withholding legal permission for Bree's final operation until she has met the boy.

Critic Reviews:

• " A challenging film both for its subject matter and its brutal honesty and, at times, graphic imagery. " – Richard Propes

• " The filmmakers' priority was to tell a good story: their commitment was to a movie, not a movement. In truth, they did honor to both. " – Veronica Vera

• " Huffman and Zegers have the off-kilter chemistry needed. " – David Lamble
