I probably can’t make any if the current showings but this looks interesting: #Film Blue Boy Trial Blue Boy jiken, ブルーボーイ事件 #Japanese #JapaneseFilm https://www.jpf-film.org.uk/films/blue-boy-trial “Tokyo, 1965. “Blue Boys”, transgender women who live and work as prostitutes, cannot be prosecuted as they are legally registered as male. Frustrated, authorities instead arrest Dr. AKAGI Masao (YAMANAKA Takashi), who performs gender-affirming operations, accusing him of violating the Eugenic Protection Law.” #Trans #History
