A Fantastic Woman
(2017)
Directed by Sebastian
Lelio this film stars Daniela Vega, Francisco Reyes and Luis Gnecco.
Following the accidental death of her boyfriend a transgender woman
is treated horribly by both authorities and the man's family.
Despite covering one
of the worst periods of a person's life this film is littered with
the type of transphobia that transfolk suffer on a daily basis. The
subject matter is treated carefully and without being melodramatic.
There are a few really cinematic sequences that really elevate the
film as well.
4/5
