Synopsis:
In 2013, photographer and filmmaker Dave Naz launched an evocative and powerful multimedia project titled Trans: A Photo and Video Project, which became a groundbreaking exploration of the lives of transgender women. By blending his unique talent for photography with personal video interviews, Dave created a documentary that not only captured the intimate lives of transgender women but also challenged societal perceptions and fostered greater understanding and acceptance of gender diversity.
The project centers on models who identify as Transgender Female—individuals who hold significant positions within their communities as activists, adult film stars, and public figures. The women featured in Trans are not just models; they are real people with multifaceted lives, rich histories, and complex identities. Through these images and personal stories, Dave Naz invites audiences into the world of these women, offering a glimpse of their strength, their struggles, and their unflinching desire to be seen for who they truly are.
