‘Trans X Istanbul’ = humour + hope

A new documentary 'Trans X Istanbul' documents the lives of transgender people in Turkey, where attitudes are very conservative.

Maria Binder, who wrote and directed ‘Trans X Istanbul’, got a special mention from the Human Rights in Cinema jury, at the Istanbul Film festival.
