CGiii Comment

A thoroughly depressing look at the lives of transgender sex workers.

When you watch something as gloomy as this...you have to compare the treatment that transgender people receive in Western culture to that of different cultures...it really is a sobering film.

This film documentary is about the lives of two lady-boy sex workers Pao and Srey Leak in Phnom Penh who face sexual violence and ignorance from the society. Pao and Srey Leak become sisters, living together and taking care each other after their families had kicked them out. The intense, observational documentary ‘Karma?’ tells the story of the hard life of HIV-positive transgender sex workers and of coming of age in Phnom Penh. This documentary also shows the strength of friendship.
