    • Synopsis
    • Over a period of 7 years, Stefano talks about his choice to undertake the reassignment of sex from female to male. The first steps, the interviews with a still feminine face and voice, the problems that arise with hormonal treatment.
      Many challenges and many goals, not all of them succeed.
      "Ste" obtains consent to interventions to change a body in which he does not recognize himself. Soon he reaches great visibility.
      But at the end of the parable in the media he is disappointed by the LGBT world, by the false activism, and by the attacks received on the new image he has projected of himself.
      Finally mature, Stefano confronts his past. Through the reflection of his true identity, he has now achieved his purpose: a "normal" life.
