Synopsis
A look into the intimate world of Laurence Philomène, a young non-binary transgender photographer, as she prepares her first book, Puberty, a series of self-portraits documenting her transition during hormone therapy.
Reflecting Philomène’s autobiographical approach, LARRY (they/them) highlights the cinematic power of the artist’s vibrant, color-saturated images and, above all, her willingness to share her story with authenticity and vulnerability.
Gender non-conforming identities, bodily diversity and the challenges of self-assertion are also explored through an exclusive foray into Philomène’s family and community.
Beyond the story of individual transformation, the film chronicles a society that is also in transition, evolving as it grows.
A celebration of those who refuse to conform, LARRY (they/them) is a luminous and engaging portrait of the complex and often misunderstood multiplicity of trans and non-binary identities and experiences, bringing to the screen one of the most inspiring and original voices of her generation and an icon of the LGBTQ+ community.
