Overview
An intimate portrait of three parents whose lives have been shaken and forever altered because their children have declared (or have been given) a transgender identity. The film reveals how shocking it is for parents to hear that their teenage children have—seemingly out of nowhere—decided to switch from female to male or from male to female. In all of the stories, we find parents struggling with disbelief, loneliness, helplessness, isolation and despair. Ultimately, each one's ultimate fear is the medicalized transition of their child. "Dead Name" humanizes the subject from the perspective of parents, giving them a voice, and lets us in on their thoughts, their struggles, and their determination to fight for their children who feel lost to them.
