    • Great documentary. I thought it was an educated and interesting response concerning the Islam faith, homosexuality and transexuality.

    • I'm a trans guy and I think it's very cool that people in Iran have the courage to stand up for what they think is right and that someone listened and documented it on video.

    • If you have the opportunity to go to Iran, shouldnt you make a documentary about something more relavent than transsexuals? after all, it is a country that is heard about on tv but no body really knows much about it. it would better time spent talking about a more relavent topics regarding iran than transexuals, like seriously, there has to be more to make a documentary about than this.

    • I''m not sure how transsexuality is NOT a valid or important topic in any country today. I commend your work and daring to speak to an issue that gathers international scrutiny and is vastly underapproached and underserved everywhere - especially in Iran, where, though more pressing issues are at hand, it''s vital to look closer at local views and local problems while taking a break from national ones.

    • So when i was in Thailand I heard a story about a top ranked muay thai fighter who was fighting to pay for his/her sex change operation. They made a cool movie about it. Check out this youtube clip.
