Since she was a child, Khemka has been fascinated by the ornate femininity and captivating spiritual powers of the outcast hijras - biological men who dress as women but reject identification with either gender. Following three hijras, Asha, Rambha and Laxmi, Khemka enters the vibrant yet struggling hijra communities, openly discussing intimate details of their lives such as their matriarchal surrogate families, castration ceremonies, thoughts about sexuality and relationships and the challenges of overcoming economic dependence on begging and prostitution. Uniquely engaging because of Khemka's ability to initiate personal dialogue about femininity, sexuality and persistent cultural stereotypes about gender, this artful film provides fascinating insights into a social group that is a growing leader in the fight for gender and sexuality rights in India. 580 Verzio Film Festival Submission 655 4 Documentary films 260 Germany : |bFilmquadrat GbR, |c2006. 041 engdeuhin |jeng 952 |00 |10 |40 |50 |70 |8FL |991141FL |bFL |d2016-11-25 |l0 |r2016-11-25 |w2016-11-25 |yDVD-ROM 952 |00 |10 |2ddc |40 |6FL_RECORD_1227_000000000000000 |70 |8FL |9146549FL |bFL |d2019-03-06 |l0 |oFL Record 1227 |pHU_OSA_00002889.mp4 |r2021-11-04 |w2019-03-06 |yDIGIFILM |zAccess Copy, MP4 format |cAudio Visual 920 01 aYa80vXJ 966 True |bHU_OSA_00002889 |cDigitally Anywhere / With Registration
