CGiii Comment

Composition and cinematography...stunning.

Confusion, hopeful glimmers, sadness and frustration...the ending is testament to mighty fine filmmaking.

The(ir) Blurb...

By day Chen Shi works in a textiles factory and at night dons a red dress and takes to the dance hall. We Outlaws is the story of just one of countless Trans and non-binary people who lived their lives in secret during an era of strict governmental prohibition, their very existence a crime. But this isn't just a story of persecution and fear. Chen Shi's story is ultimately one of bravery and hope.
