Trannymals Go To Court
12 minutes Animation / Comedy / Educational / Gay & Lesbian
Since most court cases involving transgender people discuss genitals at great length, we thought it appropriate that the genitals get to say their piece!
Intended Audience: Mature
Since most court cases involving transgender people discuss genitals at great length, we thought it appropriate that the genitals get to say their piece! "Trannymals Go To Court" is a fairy tale with a cast of eight fierce and fiery talking genitals who expose harmful legal practices, speak up for gender self-identification, and spread unapologetic tranny pride. Trannymals are friendly googley-eyed creatures who set out to make the invisible visible and turn shame into celebration, with reverence and irreverence – until we respect and cherish every single body.
"Trannymals Go to Court" uses a fairy tale to depict what transgender people face when they go to court. One of the creators of this film, Dylan Vade, is co-founder of the Transgender Law Center (TLC) in San Fancisco. Dylan noticed that when a transgender person goes to court, whether for a case about employment, child custody, or a change in birth certificate, it is highly likely that there will be a big discussion about the size and shape of the transgender person’s genitals. We want to show the harm of this practice. Although transgender genitals are a serious subject, the Trannymals themselves are sparkly, fierce and fiery characters who provoke curious and joyful laughter. Trannymals are transgender genitals who dress up with googley eyes and accessories. They look back and speak back. Wherever the Trannymals go, they spark curiosity, reflection, and conversation. We want to continue using these friendly, whimsical characters to create visibility of transgender genitals, to serve as a catalyst for legal and social reform, and to bring more joy into the world.
