Having lost the opportunity to tell her mother that she is a lesbian, a young Indian filmmaker in search of answers, travels across India to meet with parents of other gay and lesbian South Asians. I Am is a personal and revealing film that journeys to a landscape where being gay was until recently a criminal and punishable offense. With courage, determination, and humor, families share untold stories that have thus far remained in the realm of secrecy and silence. It is a unique and groundbreaking film that defies the very genre of documentary filmmaking.

Lukas has just turned twenty. He’s going through hormone replacement therapy induced male puberty, because he was born a girl. Ready for action, he launches into his new life in the big city, but things don’t exactly get off to a good start: on his arrival he finds he has been assigned to live not in a hostel for young men doing community service but in a nurses’ hostel where he is the only boy. While everyone else is merely somewhat disconcerted, Lukas’ daily life is nothing but stress. For him, being transgender means constantly being put into false categories.
