METAMORPHOSIS
DIR Jose Enrique Tiglao | Philippines | 2019 | 99m
Featuring a phenomenal central performance by Gold Azeron, Jose Enrique Tiglao’s feature directorial debut carves a new space for an honest intersex coming-of-age story, one that is brimming with delicate vulnerability and courageous, life-affirming awakening. Fourteen-year-old Adam, an outcast with a tendency to start fist fights at school, has identified as male up until the day he unexpectedly starts menstruating, beginning the journey of discovering that he is intersex.
