==>Trans Film Night: “SHINJUKU BOYS”

==>Free Film! Free Snacks! Free Talk!

The Trans Film Screening Series hosts a FREE screening of: “SHINJUKU BOYS”

Everyone welcome. Allies welcome.

► SHINJUKU BOYS: introduces three onnabes (women who choose to live as men) who work as hosts at the New Marilyn Club in Tokyo. As the film follows them at home and on the job, all three talk frankly about their gender-bending lives, including views on girlfriends, clients, lesbianism, trans status, masculinity, etc. All three take different approaches. Includes fabulous sequences shot inside the club. The documentary questions the intersections of gender and labour or the labour of gender.
