  • Patchwork: CN / Transgender UK

    1,590 views 1 year ago
    "I really do believe that every single person has a unique vantage point on their own body, for want of a better word - their own soul, their mind, how all of those connect. There cannot be a binary of genders because really it's more like a constellation."

    CN Lester is a singer-songwriter who identifies as genderqueer and non-binary. Find out what this means to them in a new short film, part of the digital storytelling project Patchwork, which looks at the lives of transgender people of all ages and backgrounds around the UK.

    The film is part of the Patchwork Digital Storytelling Project that looks at the lives of transgender people of all ages and backgrounds around the UK. The series was commissioned by All About Trans and produced by Lucky Tooth Films in collaboration with Channel 4.

    Fox Fisher and Lewis Hancox of Lucky Tooth have been making films together since meeting on the Channel 4 series My Transsexual Summer in 2011. To hear them talking about the making of the Patchwork series and see clips, click here.

    Other films in the series introduce models, soldiers, artists, musicians, activists and psychics, who just happen to be trans - as well as their friends, partners and families.

    This autumn, Channel 4 will broadcast a selection of the films. Show less
