The subject matter: protecting the human rights and dignity of people born with intersex traits
Film:
Every Body
Every Body is a revelatory investigation of the lives of intersex people. The film tells the stories of three individuals who have moved from childhoods marked by shame, secrecy, and non-consensual surgeries to thriving adulthoods after each decided to set aside medical advice to keep their bodies a secret and instead came out as their authentic selves.
This grant was awarded as part of Subject Matter’s collaboration with the 2023 Tribeca Festival.
