Synopsis:
"I Am Cait" is an American television documentary series that premiered on July 26, 2015, on the E! network. The show chronicles Caitlyn Jenner's life following her highly publicized gender transition, offering viewers an intimate glimpse into her experiences as she navigates her new identity. Over eight one-hour episodes, the series explores the evolving dynamics of her relationships with family and friends, while also emphasizing Jenner's self-appointed role as a role model for the transgender community.
The series was born out of a cultural moment that began with Caitlyn Jenner's groundbreaking interview with Diane Sawyer in April 2015. During this interview, Jenner publicly came out as a transgender woman, prompting a national conversation about gender identity and representation. E! swiftly announced the documentary series, aiming to provide an unfiltered view of Jenner’s transition.
