Orlando, My Political Biography

Summary

‘Virginia Woolf wrote my biography in 1928’ claims transgender academic-turned-filmmaker Preciado in this documentary of metamorphosis. He invites 26 trans and non-binary people to play Orlando, the titular character of Woolf’s novel, and the re-enactments are all unique, personal, visual and interpretative. More literary criticism than film, Preciado’s cinematic essay won the Teddy Award for Best Documentary at Berlin.
