Girl Inside

This beautiful, heartwarming coming of age story is both an intimate portrait and a thoughtful exploration of what it means to be a woman. Following 26-year-old Madison during a crucial three years of her transition from male to female, GIRL INSIDE tracks her emotional, intellectual and spiritual journey of self-discovery that is as important – if not more than – the physical journey of hormones and surgery. Sharing the spotlight is Vivien, Madison’s glamorous 80-year-old grandmother, who has taken on the job of advising her on all things feminine. While Vivien’s attempts to school Madison in old-fashioned codes of fashion and behavior are often hilarious, the juxtaposition of two vastly different experiences of womanhood, from very different generations, raises profound issues about the nature of gender, femininity and sexuality.
