Trans Representation Through Disney’s 'Mulan'
Mulan had to struggle to feel like herself and see herself properly. Some of us have to strive to have our reflection mimic what’s inside. We have to crawl. We have to fight.
The Assessment
It is the story of the meeting of two men, presumed childhood friends, of which one remembers every detail, with nostalgia and perhaps resentment, while the other pretends to remember only because he is distressed by a tax assessment and his friend is a tax official. Metaphor of two opposite ways of looking at one's roots, which one cannot free oneself from without risking losing one's identity.
