Synopsis by Jason Buchanan

Exploitation queen Doris Wishman directs this documentary-style grindhouse epic that explores the curious medical phenomenon known as "gender dysphoria" and affords steely-nerved viewers the opportunity to witness firsthand a medically performed gender transformation from man to woman. In addition to numerous interviews with post-ops, drag-queens, and bull-dykes, this unflinching look at the culture of gender-bending also explores the sexual mysteries of the transsexual cult and restores the notorious "chisel" scene previously censored in the original U.S. theatrical release.
