SYNOPSIS

A 
transsexual
 woman
 tries 
to 
lock
 within
 herself 
what
 remains 
of 
her 
manly
 past…

This
 is
 a
 story
 about
 identity
 complexity,
 about
 fragmentation
 of
 our
 being,
 sometimes
 pushing
 us 
to 
cast
out
 some
 of
 its 
aspects
 – 
because 
we 
are 
not 
“one”,
 because 
we 
are 
multi‐faceted, 
well 
beyond 
our 
male 
or 
female 
nature.
Through
 the
 Beauty
 and
 the
 Beast,
 through
 the
 male
 and
 female
 poles
 they
 personify,
 through
 the
 transidentity
 image,
 this
 story
 is
 above
 all
 the
 story
 of
 what
 makes
 us
 up
 and
 sometimes
 divides
 us
 ;
 in
 a
 space‐time
 gap
 where
 spirit
 and
 flesh 
have 
no 
boundaries 
any 
longer, 
where
 it 
is 
necessary
 to 
take 
over
again
 our
 limits.
 Because
 we
 are
 each
 character
 of
 our
 dreams
 ;
 this
 personification
 is
 portrayed
 in
 our
 own
 oniric
 world
 and
 also
 all
 the
 other
 characters
 through
 which
 we
 project 
our
 urges, 
our 
desires, 
our 
fears 
and
 our
 fascinations.
