Charlotte
Puck Goossen followed the 53 year old fitter, Charlotte, for 9 months, from a few months before her operation, until a few months after. Three years before, Charlotte decided to finally respond to her desire of being a woman and it was then that, by way of preparation, she started taking a hormone cure and psychiatric escort. Moved and inspired by her diary and thanks to a far-reaching relationship of trust with this transsexual Goossen reveals Charlotte's growing consciousness of transsexuality and the inner struggle preceding her decision, and he shows how Charlotte carries on her daily life with a new identity.
