For Immediate Release
Screenbox Pte Ltd releases a documentary about transsexuals on DVD.
From the makers of the popular TV Series, Hanyut, Bongkar Sr 1 and Sr 2, Uncensored exposes a very taboo topic especially among our Malay community – too extreme and forbidden that these stories could not be shown on TV!
This one hour documentary zooms into the lives of what many will deemed as the black sheep of our society -Transsexuals. Uncensored delves into this dark culture and lifestyle, their explicit secrets, background and life stories.
The filming, which was done in June 2008, was mostly carried out at Changi Village, the popular spot where many transsexuals prostitutes ‘haunt’ for their victims.
Screenbox’s Executive Producer, Mr. Sujimy Mohamad said, “Our team had to hide at the highest floor of a HDB block to record real footages of the happenings there. A hidden camera was clipped onto 2 transsexual prostitutes to record very raw footages of their intimate moments with their clients. This is by far our boldest and edgiest production.”
But Uncensored is beyond all that sizzles. This documentary also pull our heartstrings as we listen to the struggles of these transsexuals who crave for a sense of belonging, not just from our community, but also from their own flesh and blood.
This documentary also gets up close and personal with a popular transsexual figure, as she opens up about her sex operation procedure.
The painful experiences and struggles these transsexuals have to go through to become a woman and to earn a living are all documented in this gut and honest one hour documentary.
Uncensored DVD will be released island wide in the 2nd week of April 2009.
