“Gender Transformation: The Untold Realities” Scores
Best POV Documentary Award At the Manhattan Film Festival

”Gender Transformation: The Untold Realities” is a docudrama examining the complex issues surrounding transgenderism and youth. The film explores the roles played by the education system, medical and pharmaceutical industries, the financial interests behind the transgender movement, and the societal and political mechanisms at work.

The docudrama tells the real-life stories of several former transgender youth who started the gender transitioning process and their experiences at various stages of the journey through live interviews and re-enactments. Experts interviewed in the film reveal the life-altering medical and psychological impacts of the experimental medication used, including the irreversible side effects of puberty blockers, hormone therapies, and surgeries that are not in general reported by the media.

Award-winning director Tobias Elvhage, whose most recent awards include Best Short Film at the 2023 LA Documentary Film Festival and Winner of the 2023 European Cinematography Awards, brings to light the untold realities and the implications of the transgender movement on our children and youth.

The documentary has been awarded the Best POV Documentary at the Manhattan Film Festival 2023, a recognition of its compelling narrative, meaningful impact, and significant contribution to the film industry.
