Edhi Alice: Reverse











Edhi Alice: Reverse

directed by Ilrhan Kim


Following intimately two transitioning women, Edhi and Alice, the film portrays the journey to reconcile their bodies, expressed in the diverse form of cinema. In the film, their journey leads to the question: of what the trans woman is and what the cinema truly is.
