East German trans icon Charlotte von Mahlsdorf guides Rosa von Praunheim through the retelling of her incredible life story in this biopic that blurs the lines between traditional narrative and documentary. As much about the joys of collecting antique furniture as it is Mahlsdorf’s role in fostering and protecting queer community in East Berlin, I Am My Own Woman is one of the few trans biopics to truly feel as radical and as original as its subject.
