Tell Me Your Name, Friend

Matthew Baren · 10 min · Letterboxd ↗

An identity, a burden, an escape, a symbol. The simplest thing we can share with others is our name, but it can also be one of the most complex. In this short documentary, a group of trans and queer people tell the stories of their names, and ask us to consider how a few simple words are meant to contain our whole person.

Tell Me Your Name, Friend screens once in London: The Arzner, Saturday 19 September at 13:30.
