Masculinidades Plásticas

Akin, a young Black transmasculine journalist from the countryside of Bahia, dives into a research project to understand the city's perception of trans people. His journey is not only professional but also deeply personal: he seeks to discover which masculinities have shaped him. Along the way, Akin is transported to a parallel universe, where he meets four oracles who read the fate of the world. They reveal that the patriarchal system of masculinity is broken and on the verge of collapse, dismantling everything once believed about what it means to be a man.

It often happens that at the moment of death, transgender individuals are shorn of their identity. Their families are ashamed, the funeral takes place in secret, and on the tomb appears the name the deceased had before their transition, in one stroke nullifying the entire life path they had chosen. The same thing happened to Antonia. Her girlfriends gather to honor her memory and give her back her identity denied. In telling her story, the film’s stars, all drawn from the variegated transgender world, interweave the narrative with tales of their own lives, experiences, and memories.
