Presented by: Office of LGBTQI Life; facilitator: Monica Casper, former executive director, Intersex Society of North America; professor of Social & Behavioral Sciences and Women's Studies, Arizona State University Argentina, France, Spain (2008) Dir: Lucia Puenzo. For just about everybody, adolescence means having to confront a number of choices and life decisions, but rarely are any as monumental as the one facing 15 year-old Alex who was born an intersex child. As Alex begins to explore her sexuality, her mother invites friends from Buenos Aires to come for a visit at their house on the gorgeous Uruguayan shore. Their 16-year-old son lvaro comes along and Alex is immediately attracted to the young man, which adds yet another level of complexity to her personal search for identity. And forces both families to face their worst fears. In Spanish with English subtitles. Not rated. 86 minutes.

Admission is FREE and open to the public. Funding provided in part by the Office of LGBTQI Life. Presenters will provide an introduction and facilitate post-screening discussion for each film. Sarratt Cinema is located on the first floor of the Sarratt Student Center at Vanderbilt University.
