Four friends \u2013 Nic, Leo, Andrea and Raff \u2013 tell the stories of their gender transitions. Looking back on their childhood and youth, they share their personal memories and experiences. Even if they did not always conform to the social norms of femininity \u2013 all four were socialised as girls. This helps them to understand each other and feel less alone. The discussions with partners, the choice of pronouns, the hormone therapy, decisions about surgery and dealing with the authorities \u2013 the processes are diverse, and lengthy. Nel mio nome<\/i> gives trans people a space to describe their personal paths to their own identity with the name they have chosen for themselves. The film is also a frank and sensitive depiction of the hurdles that they have had to overcome in society in order to implement the necessary social, physical and legal changes. Directed by Nicol\u00f2 Bassetti, the documentary counted on Elliot Page as executive producer.<\/p>\n<\/div>
