Transgender people were until very recently not entitled to Pakistani nationality. They still have limited access to education, employment, or state protection, and are frequently victims of violence. In a never-before-seen side of life in Pakistan, this absolute documentary follows the stories of three transgender people, each of whom represents a different way of life in Pakistan. Flamboyant, colorful, and eccentric, many amongst Pakistan’s transgender community scrape a living together through dancing, singing, and begging on the mean streets of Karachi. Many earn money catering to the sexual needs of local men in the city’s seedier districts the lucky ones find their way to the tougher parts of the city where, hidden from the conservative mainstream, groups of outcast transsexuals have come together to create whole underground communities or ‘families’.
