The first German-language documentary to critically examine the zeitgeist phenomenon of "transsexuality." In a nearly 90-minute journey, authors Judith Sevinç Basad and Jan A. Karon combine reportage with investigative research, attending demonstrations, speaking with activists, and meeting desperate parents, as well as teachers, transsexuals, youth therapists, feminists, and publicists. They conclude: Trans activism is perhaps the most dangerous zeitgeist phenomenon, one that is still completely downplayed.
