This is a fantastic documentary about a very brave individual. I found it almost unbearable to watch at times - my heart in my mouth. Beautiful, touching, thought-provoking, upsetting. I found the scenes between him and his family difficult - Gena's grandparents don't understand Gena, they can't really accept how Gena is, they can't keep their negative opinions to themselves - and yet, at the same time, they still love Gena, still want to see Gena, still want to support Gena, even though they often hurt Gena - they don't abandon Gena. That might not be high praise but they all keep loving each other in spite of how hard it is.
Rating: 5 out of 5 stars
Heart rendering story of bravery and liberation against all odds. Best documentary I've seen in ages.
