CGiii Comment

Patrizia, a Neapolitan transsexual, has stopped prostituting herself. Age advances and the signs of a life of excesses are now marking his face. Finding herself on the sidelines, no longer knowing what to live on, without a place to stay, she lets herself go, telling of the trauma that, as a child, marked her all her life and the struggle she has always carried on to claim, without hypocrisy, his dignity.


Patrizia, transessuale napoletano, ha smesso di prostituirsi. L'età avanza e i segni di una vita di eccessi oramai marcano il suo volto. Trovatasi a margine, senza più sapere di cosa vivere, senza un posto dove stare, si lascia andare, raccontando del trauma che, ancora bambina, l'ha segnata per tutta la vita e della lotta che da sempre ha portato avanti per rivendicare, senza ipocrisie, la sua dignità.
