My Emptiness and I – Identity and LBGTQ+ Experiences

Director: Adrián Silvestre

Starring: Alberto Díaz, Carlos Fernández Guía, Isabel Rocatti, Marc Ribera, Raphaëlle Perez

Raphi, from France, fantasises about romances with princes, and about starting a traditional family. But in reality, things aren’t like that. She works in a call centre in Barcelona, struggles with at times embarrassing dates, and is diagnosed by her therapist as having gender dysphoria. During this confusing, yet valuable period, we follow this trans woman as she makes her transition, as well as in her everyday life. She talks candidly with colleagues, queer friends, and the men she meets through apps. In spite of all the advice she receives, it turns out that it is mostly time and experience that will help her embrace her place in this world.

This film is free and open to the public as part of UML’s Identity and LBGTQ+ Experiences film series.
