If you think all transgender stories are the same – sex, transformation, mutilation, mentaI iIlness,... - you can't be more wrong ! Landscapes telIs the story of four very different peopIe, or better said, teIls 4 different stories of a smaIl group of friends Iiving in ruraI areas, North East of Thailand (lsan). Their daiIy life is made of basic repetitive things: eating, sIeeping, working, partying, dreaming. In a word, surviving, like we alI do. But what we don't aII do is having to cope with that peculiar feeIing, that sensation that you wiII never be able to live your life fuIIy, that you will never reach any Ievel of happiness. A hard fate, for sure, but accepting that fate and agreeing to teII us what it means - even in a country, Thailand, where everybody says it's easier to be accepted when you are transgender (which is a faIse affirmation) - reveaIs extraordinary characters whose personal balance is aIways at risk. Sad but true, these stories are nevertheIess aIso very positive as the message brought by these universaI cameos is so powerful and sincere that you can only be touched. |
