Plot Outline"Almost Myself" introduces us to multiple members of the transgender community including a gay man wanting to reverse his surgery that biologically made him a women, a woman living as a female but still having a penis, and a former college football player finally living her life as a woman. The stories in "Almost Myself" include journeys of boyhood to womanhood and the struggles of mending and transcending gender.Variety says "The latest chapter in Tom Murray's easygoing exploration of lesbian, gay, transgendered and bisexual issues, "Almost Myself," finds the filmmaker traveling across the country talking to various transgendered men-to-women. Neither militant nor "objective," and without a shred of pretension, Murray admits he is interviewing a limited range of people "... almost like myself" -- white, over 40, and labeled male at birth. He elicits remarkable candor in his subjects, illuminating a wide spectrum of choices and lifestyles." |
