Trans Allegories in Film: 'Nimona' (2023)
Animation as a medium of storytelling can be thought to be open to all ages and as I hope my reading will reveal, 'Nimona' could be interpreted as a transgender story.
Beatrice (2017)
Beatrice Vio has been fencing since she was five; she used to do it standing and now she does it sitting. When she was twelve, she had her four limbs amputated due to complications from meningitis, which didn't stop her pursuing the sport she loves and becoming a world champion at the age of nineteen. With the implacable support of her family, she has defied all limitations and expectations. This short documentary is a window into the extraordinary, that becomes ordinary, of Beatrice's life.
