What a dignified film...done with such gentility.

The power of compromise!

A beautiful, touching film.

SILVIA IN THE WAVES - Silvia dans les vagues from Gio Olmos on Vimeo.

The(ir) Blurb...

The course of mourning carries Silvia, a 40 years old trans woman, and her family through the waves of memory and rebirth, death and survival.


Noa et Mireille doivent assumer la pénible responsabilité d’organiser les obsèques de Jean, père de l’un et mari de l’autre, qui s’identifiait à une femme lors des derniers mois de son existence.
