CGiii Comment

Iran performs more sex change operations than any other country - apart from Thailand...now, that is a surprise.

This film simply shows the problems, the difficulties and heartbreak that those with gender identity problems face...

It's the same everywhere...strangely, it may be a little easier in Iran to get the required operation...who would have thought!!!

The(ir) Blurb...

An intimate and unflinching look at life in Iran, seen through the lens of those living at its fringes, 'Be Like Others' is a provocative look at a generation of young Iranian men choosing to undergo sex change surgery.
