Real Boy (2016)
Amazing film

This documentary manages to keep all the balls in the air the whole way through. It balances differing and evolving viewpoints on its key issue without dehumanizing or vilifying anyone. It shows true struggle without becoming maudlin and true triumph without becoming trite. It is an incredibly human experience that doesn't force its message about dealing with both physical and emotional transformation. Instead, it challenges its audiences perceptions gently yet persistently, all while breaking down the barriers of what "gender" and "family" may mean.
