Part intimate video diary and part traditional documentary, Finding Phong spans more than a year in the life of Lê Ánh Phong, a twentysomething transwoman from a small village in Vietnam.

Growing up in a small town in central Vietnam, Phong, the youngest of six children, always felt like a girl with a mismatched body. Moving to Hanoi to attend university, Phong discovers that they are not the only one in the world with this predicament and begins to dream of physically changing sex.

Refreshingly frank, Finding Phong highlights the emotional depth involved in the transformational process, observing a complex yet ultimately inspiring journey of the self.

Star Nhà Ease: Vietnamese Cinema is presented by Live Cinema UK & Tuyết Vân Huỳnh with the support of the BFI, awarding funds from the National Lottery & supported by Longdan LTD.
