Who I Am Not

Who I Am Not; Tünde Skovrán, 2023, versions: OR,SS,ES, languages: eng, tsn

Director: Tünde Skovrán

What makes a male, and what makes a female? Where do we draw the line, and does it really matter? – Sharon-Rose Khumalo, a South African beauty queen, plunges into an identity crisis after finding out she is intersex. In her quest to deal with gender dysphoria, she needs the guidance of somebody just like her. The only person who will help is Dimakatso Sebidi, a masculine presenting intersex activist who turns out to be her complete opposite. The two parallel but divergent stories offer an intimate look at the struggle of living in a male-female world, when you are born in-between. For the first time in a creative documentary, Who I Am Not gives a voice to the long ignored and mostly silent two percent of the world’s population: the intersex community.

The producer Andrei Zinca will be present for a discussion in English after the screening. The discussion will also be interpreted into Slovak Sign Language.
