Produktbeschreibung

After moving to yet another new school and unexpectedly making friends with a hypermasculine trans ally, a gender-questioning teenager must fight back against bullies, friends, and his mother to finally embrace his identity as a trans boy. Content warnings: transphobia, conversion therapy, detransition, drugging, drug abuse "A gem of trans joy in this increasingly transphobic landscape... Real Boy isn't just trans inclusive, it's trans-first. " - Jesse Smith, Transwrites "A close and sympathetic look at the difficulties and rewards in the life of a trans child... particularly useful to parents of young people starting to find that their gender identity is not what is expected of them." - Julian Swainson, Norwich Eye "Rings painfully true. Real Boy follows in the path of traditional fairy tales; it is not pretty, nor is it kind - but it holds a vital message that it would be foolish to ignore." - Robyn Holdaway, Actor

Autorenporträt

Finn A. Evans is an American-born, Bulgarian-raised writer and director who holds both a BA in Media Studies and an MA in Theatre Directing from the University of East Anglia. His focus is on creating stories - through film, radio drama, and the stage - which explore misrepresented demographics and rarely discussed topics. Evident in both his international debut film 'Glow' in 2021 (on turbulent mental health) to directing 2022's 'Real Boy' (representing the rarely appreciated reality to being transgender), is his belief that amazing things are done by people opening their hearts and uniting in a common goal.
